    Bring on the oil burners. Presumably Omaha was being converted for just this time of the year. Is she ready?

    Thanks. I’m surprised myEmbsay colleagues haven’t mentioned it in discussion.

    With the exception of the fire pumps and the burning off the NYMR does all those on your list. It also has a fire patrol in a vehicle following every train through Newtondsle. However it can’t get all the way to summit as the lineside track isn’t continuous.
    Burning off used to be practised but has seemingly been abandoned.

    Is there any scope for an RRV or use of an alternative vehicle that can negotiate the ground?

    Regards
