We will be having our spring diesel gala on May 15th and 16th to include:

"Rail Ale" and an intensive timetable, showcasing our superb collection of classic Diesels, along with some special visiting locomotives too.

We have one of the best collections of Heritage Diesels in the East Midlands, with most of the locomotives types that were once common throughout the area. If you remember summer trips to "Skeggy", the Cornish Riviera or forays to London, locomotives in our fleet will bring back the memories. Or maybe you remember the vast numbers of coal trains moving locally mined coal from pit to Power Station - we have representative locos from those trains too.

Our Diesel events have proved to be some of the most popular on our calendar. We always have an enviable range of Real-Ales on-train, which can be enjoyed with snacks and light meals.

In 2010 we will debut new arrival "Peak" 46010, and anticipate special visiting locomotives too. Topped-off with an excellent selection of real ales from our on-train catering services, and a diesel-only theme on our small-scale railways, this event will be a "not to be missed" gala.

Reserve the dates in your diary for what promises to be a cracking weekend!

This event runs with a special, intensive timetable.

Resident operational diesels are:

Class 56, 56097
Class 47, 47765
Class 47, 47292
Class 25, D7629 (25279)
Class 20, D8007
Class 20, D8154
Class 73, 73110
Class 46, 46010
08220
08114


And I will be working on both days on 47292 plus other lesser tasks......and will most probably be driving at some point to!

And Di, enjoy the NRM, its a great day out (free entry but the parking is charged)
 
ahh bliss not a tracktor in sight ;D ;D ;D

We've still got a Class 121 'bubble car' which operates on the Cardiff Queen Street to Cardiff Bay shuttles. (When it's actually 'in service' that is).

A right pain to work, with a useless heating system too.

Saying that, I do enjoy the sound of that Leyland 0.680 with SCG gearbox!
 :y
I miss the sound of a good ear spliting rasping 101 bone shaker :y

This area was awash with 37s on the coal traffic.

And until a few years back, we had a few stabled at Rhymney hauling 4-coach rakes on peak-hour workings. I even had two top'n'tailed 37s on the Treherbert line once, due to a Pacer/Sprinter shortage - pain in the neck though on intensive Valleys services.

Bit of a '47' bloke meself though :y

I know a lot of people are against the death penalty but in some circumstances like this one they should of been hung.
thus saving £250K and no vigilante attacks.
