Do come and say hi if you're in the area. Stepney won't answer but you can bet that he'll be smiling.

It has arrived. Cheers.
#OTD in 1971, steam power returned to the mainlines of Great Britain, after a Cromwell-like ban enforced by British Railways.
A cider train and a dream was all it took.

Sometimes there's happy coincidences.
Of the thousands of photo and video files I go through for my videos, I found this one of Flying Scotsman, no.4472, with the file name happening to match.
Might be a while before I get to 60103 files on an SD card!

Tune in to BBC Breakfast tomorrow morning to see the TR on TV!
Jayne McCubbin visited us to ask the question "Why do so many people love Railways?" as part of the ongoing #Railway200 celebrations - and a whole host of Talyllyn volunteers were on hand to give their take.

The time has come to TRY and narrow down my all time favourite steam locomotives.
Yes, I've done a top ten video like it was still ten years ago. That's the time I'm on.
Bramble (and Nettle) have inspected Bramble... So that must mean it's passed the quality control check! @rapidotrains.co.uk

Love you all. ๐ค x
...We only had Dolgoch as our ring bearer!! These heroes successfully got a real, coal-fired steam engine down the aisle to bring a bit of the Talyllyn to the ceremony.
It's not often you need a track gang and a loco crew at a wedding, but I had the best. โค๏ธ
One more for now..๐งต
Look at these superstars๐Massive thanks to photo man Nathan, best man Owen and Team Train for being so patient with me as they helped set up all of the decorations. I am so thankful to know these people.
Special mention to Kes, Steve,
@explcookie.bsky.social and Keira... ๐งต
Feeling warmed with emotions after Holly and I finally got married, and to have celebrated it with so many people we love. ๐ค
Thank you all for your well wishes, and ESPECIALLY to everyone who helped us on the day...
