Cheers guys

Hi, apologies if there was any further discussion on this subject that I haven't noticed, but I was wondering just how bad the track is on the GEML. I am aware that there has been a historic lack of investment on the line, having read bits of this thread and other articles elsewhere. Cheers :D

Brill thanks. Very informative. Cheers for that.

Hi guys, I am trying to find information relating to when an EU-emissions compliant engine could be developed for railway locomotives, not just within the EU but for the UK also with its smaller loading gauge. If such an engine could be produced, presumably it would mean that locos could be...

It's a one off, but its a touristy website so I am quite keen to include all the various galas and events throughout the year, and hopefully some nice American visitors will roll up off the back of it....well, here's hoping

Hi guys, I am about to start work on an article for American website Anglotopia, basically giving an overview/guide to preserved railways in the UK. If anybody has any particularly interesting things going on, or things they would like me to mention, please let me know ASAP. Cheers...

Sure, but this in effect has morphed into a general discussion about magazines/newspapers versus web content. You're right of course, smarter freelancers will have already oriented themselves towards web content....including me. Renewable Energy Magazine, my main client, is largely website...

Sure, but from what I've seen (through discussion on LinkedIn groups on the subject of freelancing) the chances of getting into the tabloids and broadsheets for most freelancers, including me at the moment, are very slim as the competition is ferocious...I've tried sending stuff off to The...

Okay, thanks guys, some valid points there indeed. Dealing with E&W Lucas points first...Anorak Monthly? Actually that's quite amusing I have to say but Heritage Railway is now an established preservation magazine of equal stature I would say to Steam Railway which I will also try to break into...

Okay guys, especially those on LinkedIn, please now see this: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/UK-Heritage-Railway-Staff-8243882?home=&gid=8243882&trk=anet_ug_hm

Wow, cheers guys, that's two more brilliant suggestions, much appreciated Telstarbox :D:D:D

Hi Simon, according to this, the circulation for Heritage Railway is 52,318 http://www.mortonsmediagroup.com/media/hr.htm#circ --- old post above --- --- new post below --- Hi Jonfun, actually that's very useful. It might be worth me just actually passing my name round all the small...

Hi guys, a bit of a rant for anyone involved in preservation... I have attempted to put this on the National Preservation Forum, but it seems that site is down at the moment. Just recently I tried to get in touch with a certain preservation project in Dorset, but it seems no-one at this...

Its all juddery at Bristol, sort of "Platform -- 5 -- for the -- 16:56 -- service to -- Exeter St Davids"..... snore.....

Thanks guys, almost done. The bulk of the article will concern the 379, with the other stuff going in some information boxes extra to the main article.

Drat, missed that one somehow. Annoying. :D Cheers Alex...

Hi guys, I am a freelance journalist with an interest in rail issues and I am currently engaged in writing an article for Rail Express magazine on the subject of Network Rail's current trial with a modified battery powered Class 379 Electrostar on the Manningtree to Harwich branch line...
