While some here are complaining about the detail I suspect you aren't the target market, of course it could be better and of course the price could be more, if it was put out by Hornby/Lima with some  ...

3801 to be out on the main south 6 days next week. Moss Vale and Goulburn as destinations.

Handrails or staff exchangers has the same answer.

The owner or operator of the locomotive completes a risk assessment, puts in place mitigation and weighs up the consequences and likelihood.

So ...

Rumour: 3801 will be out in August on the main south.

The trip is not running

Looks like SSR grain train, split over two sidings, backing side swiped itself.

Perhaps Bingley Hall can update us, he's quick normally to report on such things.

[quote=DCook]One other thing I should have said, I really doubt THNSW is in a position to be able to restore it, there is an immense lack of communication between the board and volunteers, between the ...

From yesterday, I heard a report of an empty grain train backing into a rake of empty grain wagons at Parkes. Possibly wagons written off and other repairable but not usable.

3801 went for a run today and two days ago. From info received, next Wednesday to Newcastle and Cowan bank.

Tourist rail will also have to look at paid staffing levels, already rumors THNSW is going to look at staffing levels. Not good but the whole country is heading the same direction.

If you're in the southwest of NSW try Goulburn area perhaps. The Roundhouse or CFCLA workshop.

Transport will be the killer.

The bridge one is Brisbane, Indooroopilly

Second is Werris Creek.

Apparently in the interests of "safety" RTBU have staff sitting in the ONRSR Melbourne branch office. You only need to visit the ONRSR office to see the RTBU logo on the wall.

A good cause, many of the Thirlmere workshop workers live int eh area as well so a win win.

I seriously doubt Thirlmere is in a position to return 1243 to service. Don't get me wrong they would want the loco for sure but they are already looking at third party assistance for another large en ...

Isn't it supposed to move in steam end of this week according to one guy?
