Back in 2004 the SVR wanted the Railcar to return for the Railcar50 event. The GWS agreed but stipulated that it could only come by rail. In the...

Not got a lineside pass myself but I believe there are instructions on the SVR (or at least suggestions) about not standing in front of the Engine...
There must be some fairly tight curves at Elsecar from this recent post on the SVR-Online forum:
Presumably a timetable change between 1950 and 1954. The 1950 timetable was 6.15am St James to Gl, 6.42 Gl to Le, 7.55 Le to Gl, 9.20 Gl to Le,...
Not sure if it the same book, but Colin Judge's "The History of the Great Western A.E.C. Diesel Railcars" is well worth a read. It includes a list...
By definition the Santa events are streets ahead of the other events. (31,962 pax / £515k). The other main 2017 events were Diesel Gala 4,807 pax...
Anyone may of course choose to attend such events or not as they think fit. The SVR normally stages a demonstration 'battle' at Highley each year...
I was beginning to feel left out, but my card was finally credited today. Fair play, as you say.

Worth ringing Pathfinder to ask? The worst they can do is say no...
As a first stab I took the data from the WSR.org page and came up with the following (assuming visiting locos ran and excluding industrials etc)....
Yes, I spoke to the office this afternoon and got the same answer as @1020 Shireman - a full refund promised in exchange for the return of an...
I knew that one had run. I tend to think of it as a (heavily) rebuilt GWR 5101 class, but I suppose you could call it a WSR 9351 class instead.
Thank you. I know much has been said in previous posts by others about Pathfinder, but as you've quoted my post may I say that I was fully aware...

Big thanks to everyone who made for an enjoyable 4 days. Given the choice of an ambitious and interesting timetable with some risk of slippage, or...
