Kirk Oswald liked LittleRedTrain's post in the thread RTC 2026.
It would certainly be helpful if RTC/West Coast can make it clear which future tours this set will be used on. After a few years of only spending my railtour budget with Vintage and Saphos, I'd be more than happy to do a few RTC trips if I can be...

My personal opinion is that the whole Bridge 42 situation gives an impression of bad asset management practice. When you look at grants that are successful generally (wider than the NYMR) they are to add/restore something that will improve the...

Forgot to post this during the week, but during the Mid Hants Gala last weekend, the tender now destined for 34070 was on display in the yard at Ropley, all painted and ready to go. [ATTACH]

Thanks. I was lucky with the sun. Usual case of waiting in lovely light only for cloud to intervene as the train approached. Fortunately a small gap appeared and the sun popped out just long enough to get the shot. It went back in again just as...

Are both of the Jacobite sets not air braked? Hence, unless there was provision of a vac braked mk1 set, the K1 would have been unable to work the Jacobite.

This first picture is an absolute stunner and a reminder of what we have been missing over the past couple of years. Thanks for posting. Regrettably, I think that while we will now be able to enjoy a lot more images like this from our Northern...

That's not a realistic option. Even if it could be negotiated it would be like lawyers' "No Win, No Fee" schemes where the Fees often consume huge proportions of the pay out. What matters is their track record of fundraising success,...

I suspect a fault in the carriage rather than previous guard having had too many shredded wheat for breakfast! I was on the 9F on Sunday. The offending carriage was 3rd in a rake of five. So before the 10:30 departure, we remarshalled that set...
