  3. The Gricing Owl liked A1X's post in the thread KESR 50th Anniversary Gala: 1st - 2nd June 2024.

    Well Tornado looks very good in Lbro shed! [ATTACH] But you can see how close the rear driver flange is to the foundation ring... [ATTACH] Another addition seems to be a pair of hydraulic pumps driven off the tender axle - one on each...

  8. OldSchoolTrains2 replied to the thread [Jun 7, 2024] Strictly Bulleid 2 7th-9th of June at Swanage Railway (Swanage Railway).

    This gala has done a great job of forcing itself into my plans. I'm not wildly fond of Bulleids but I'd been to the 2017 Strictly Bulleid really for the sheer novelty value of that many of any big class in one place (and I only lived 50 mins from...

  10. Johnb liked Steve's post in the thread Tornado.

    That’s a modern key operated blowdown valve fitted to Tornado and is 180 deg. I‘ve no idea what’s fitted to Clan Line now but suspect it was originally a 90 deg valve which was pretty universal on loco boilers and I think was the case with the...
