[ATTACH] Called in today as part of a greater Preston area day trip couple with the West Lancashire Light Railway. Never visited before it and it is a great little set up. Train was Furness No. 20 plus four Mk 1s and a royal saloon. Took a trip...

If you're going in to Denver and have time I'd suggest the Georgetown Loop at Silver Plume (up the I70 from Denver) and the Royal Gorge with its impressive views through the Gorge

[ATTACH] Called in today as part of Greater Preston area double bill with the Ribble Steam Railway. Another one I had never visited and although the running line is short it makes up for it in charm. Montalban was in steam hauling the...

Thanks, i'd noticed this movement from Southall, but wasn't sure where DoG was at the moment https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:U78111/2026-04-10/detailed

3ABescot liked Pete Thornhill's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
This is hilarious, @60044 these awards don’t have nominations, this is an awards ceremony which is a big scam. No one nominates anyone, the organisation pays for entry. I had one ring me for my business, I told them no thanks, clearly the NYMR...

If they win, I'm sure it will make a nice two-page spread in the magazine noting the triumph! Awards like that seem to spring from a perceived lack of self-worth you get in some communications teams, as if they constantly need to validate that...

Doubly so when the feedback on Moors Line is so consistently poor

Chris86 liked 26D_M's post in the thread 60019 Bittern.
That's what I thought too and seem to recollect Tony Bush saying at the time they were optimistic it wouldn't be too bad but naturally wouldn't know for sure until they pulled it apart. Didn't it even have some new wheels made due to cracks...

26D_M liked 5944's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
That's not hilarious. That's shameful and embarrassing. Constantly begging for money then paying to enter a pointless award ceremony. That's appalling and willy waving of the highest order.

All good ideas, however I'm not sure RTC necessarily has the agency to use other TOCs or rolling stock suppliers. Lets face it, if RTC had a free hand and more power they wouldn't choose to operate as they have been the last few years.

Looking at this another way though, the business in question is effectively custodian of a large part of UK railway preservation, the thing that this forum is about. Drawing a parallel, it is akin to being a fan of a football team where the club...
