Projected Highlights for 2016?

Sadly, now confirmed not Project Wareham - delayed untill Q1 2017 due to need to replace wheelsets in the DMUs (see Project Wareham Thread). Still at least it's something to look forward to for 2017 - after all, what's another year - it's already 44 years since the line closed

WCRC sorting itself out?

 

Or Mr Hosking setting up his own TOC?...

 

That makes more sence than West Coast sorting its self out, as IOS has already started putting a rake of coaches through their shops, why else have to rely on a third party if you already have tte loco's and coaches, especailly if that 3rd party may be at risk of letting you down, if they lose their licence to operate on NR.

 

I'd prefer to see both; WCRC sorting itself out and Mr Hosking breaking into the market, and ideally with the two having a cooperative and close working relationship.

 

Any new build SG loco expected to be completed in 2016?

 

That would be my highlight... my Canadian Pacific team "research trip" has been waiting to go for the last year!

The other highlight would be if the 2 projects out of Sellindge (4DD and 35011) get going.
