Robin liked 2857Harry's post in the thread SVR General Discussion.
Was firing 1450 on Wednesday afternoon so glad you enjoyed your day. The run back was a good old trip. Reference the set swap at with the Pannier it is booked every day. The S3 set is diesel out/steam back, and S2 is steam out/diesel back. That...

Galatea did come out another time in I want to say May when it ran a private wedding charter with the Mk1's down S&C and that had a Diesel behind the loco due to the fire risk. But yeah I never remember it going anywhere in September.

Hopefully this can be fixed quickly. The latest Trackside article had an interview with Ian Riley commenting how his fleet are practically on standby until the Jacobite suddenly kicks off at a moment notice, so they can't really agree to any...

Visited the SVR on Wednesday for the first time in many years. Four trains were out: the black pannier 7714 on a rake of 7 Mark 1s; a class 45 on the Gresley set; 813 / 1450 on a GWR set (with one LMS carriage in the rake) all running full line;...

silversteellady liked Steve's post in the thread 46447 Overhaul.
In days of yore, when I was a lad (and, I guess, so was LMS 2968), 6447 meant 46447, just as 5593 meant 45593. You never bothered with the first number when saying or writing these things down unless there was likely to be confusion with those...

As this post appears to have been exhumed, I’d just add that was our normal usage too on the WV in the early 70s, it’s probably the same today. So 12-41, 52-12, 50-25; we always pronounced them as two numbers.
