Had a chat with Les today. It’ll be Monday afternoon before they know what loco they’re getting. Very doubtful 9 will be fit in time.
Plenty of noise from both ends as we get away an hour down from the Craven Arms water stop. Interesting to watch WCR staff try and jump start a...
Checked on Llanvihangel. 18mph at the foot, 15mph through Abergavenny, followed by 41mph over the summit...
From a passenger perspective, while I booked for the miles behind no. 9, I’m admiral of the effort put into getting 9 south, and in the end...

Worth noting these are to feature 31806 Weymouth - Southampton subject to fire risk.
Offical? Could just be a down period to maintain stock and fleet? Could be a case of putting two and two together for the purpose of writing an...
The video to accompany Corben’s photos above. Had a great week away, first time in the West Highlands. Unbeatable scenery, definitely one to do...
If we’re looking this deeply into the correct representation of 70014, I’m surprised there’s been no mention of the Air Pump before we start...
With pickup spots along the Nuneaton - Leicester line I would’ve assumed the route to be: Crewe - Nuneaton - Leicester - Castle Donnington -...
The origin of the stock is only determined after contracts are exchanged to run the tour... had the contract asked for Rivera stock, regardless of...
