    Does anyone know if the "green" steam line proposed by Jim Rees of the NRM is still an active idea/plan or has it been axed?

    I'm 95% sure I read that this scheme had died a death, but I'd be pleased to be proved wrong.

    Sadly it has been a victim of circumstance and politics. The stock is either sold or for sale - anyone wanting a Feldbahn and spares please PM me and I'll put you in touch with Jim who is understandably very sad at the demise of the scheme.
