Currently waiting to transfer back to Network Rail at Paignton. 47802 piloting as before. According to the most recent tannoy announcement,...
I'm on this now. Paid £400 + travel / hotel costs and have ended up travelling behind a WCRC 47 :( I know it's not the fault of WCRC or TBEL,...
This is one of my pet hates about railway privatisation/sectorisation. In the bad old days of single entity railway operations, it would have been...
What a contrast - a piece of heritage surrounded by such modernity :-)
Having traveled to the excellent West Somerset Railway specifically to travel behind 92203, I think this would be an excellent place for it to be...
Wasn't Evening Star dragged on the main line recently? Between the Network Rail Sidings/Depot and NRM great hall when it returned from Swindon....
Hi Anthony Thanks for the reply, it will be interesting to see how things turn out....... I'm glad to hear that the NRM will be remaining...
Hi there, Like many on this board, I have come to learn of the proposed redevelopment of the Great Hall due to take place at the NRM between...

I've always been a big fan of the BR Standard Loco designs, in particular Brits and 9Fs. I was just wondering how many 9Fs are currently...
Brilliant news! In my opinion, 9Fs are one of the best types of steam loco to have been built in this country. Shame we'll never see one on the...
6229 (or at least her tender) was still in the shed at Tyseley last night. Still no signs on UKSteam as to when this move is likely to happen. I...
On a different note.... I took a vid of 60163 passing through Newark Northgate. She was in fine fettle and for once, I didn't have to contend...
Hi there, Was wondering if anyone knows when 46229 is due to be moved back to York in time for it's exhibition which is due to start in May. I...
