I am loving the Revolution Trains releases this week! I am very very poor now! I never understood why Heljan released a plain DRS 37/4. Thought it might interest people here... http://www.revolutiontrains.com/o-la-la-revolution-offers-0-gauge-class-37/

I saw this on another forum, and I guess if I want a chance of winning a place...I shouldn't share :P Revolution are offering anyone who purchases their new Inspection Saloon Caroline a chance to win a free place on a days rail tour around the Peaks. Details...

Hello, I have been curious to know when the RHTTs are running and from what locations. Here in East Anglia I have established the follow diagrams and locations, I (and others) might be interested in knowing the rest, especially interested in South West operations? Is there a simplier...

Hello All, I was doing my weekly check on http://www.47soton.co.uk/ and found an interesting note that a Plain Line Pattern Recognition coach is now in service. Top and tailed by Class 73s, coach number 1256. I followed the link onto a Rail Engineer article in November 2012 saying that the...

I was bored in the lab today so Googled to see where i'd end up, found this: 2nd Powerhaul 66 on the Twitter. 66416 ex DRS livery. Wonderfully so, Freightliner have removed the grey descending to far south. Much of an improvement I think...

GBRf 66s are on their way! On the GBRf Facebook site

I cannot work this out at all, just what Intermodal services DRS run now that they have lost Malcolm Group business (even though I still see photos on Flickr of DRS operated Malcolm trains). Given that DRS has the 68s coming and a big order nearly completed from WH Davies for the IDA wagons...

Looking superb in her new livery, similar to the Class 68s is 37423 http://railwayherald.com/imagingcentre/view/333987/TW https://www.flickr.com/search/?q=37423&s=rec Thoughts?

Would anyone be interested in buying a Network Rail Mk1 Generator Coach for £40. Modified from a Bachmann Mk1 Full Brake, I have filled in relevant doors and windows, as well as installed generator grills. If interested PM me (£40 includes postage)

Vossloh have updated their websites in relation to Innotrans 2012 with information about the UK version of the Eurolight for DRS as announced back in Janurary. I hope GBRf order some! Cracking looking train...Peoples thoughts? I like how DRS have updated their branding, to work with the...

I have to show off what i recently commissioned from R3sprays. I am a chuffed customer who hopes many more shall be. They have the decals now saved so can make many more Mk2d Brake coaches like this. It looks brilliant with my ViTrains DRS 47s and Blue Pullman Mk2ds :) www.r3sprays.co.uk

I wonder if any member has had the same difficulties with the incompetence of National Express station staff as I did this Saturday gone at Cambridge Station. I would love your comments on what I might of not done, what I should of done and would i be reasonable to take this up with the Head...

A very brief post. I have noticed Hitachi are advertising there new EMU concept for future UK rail orders in various rail magazines. Its a picture of what i think is a good looking sleek train in the NE (County Durham) factory they are building (Next to a SET) and at Liverpool Street station...

I am rather confused here. I know this is last weeks news, I was rather hoping someone else might of asked on here or GBRf would of done a press release. Alas I now ask... I am confused to why GBRf have just named 66730 "Whitemoor" when 66701 is already named "Whitemoor", why is this and is...

Hello. I am ever so interested in the Plasser & Theurer tamping machines 08-16 4x4 C100 / C80 -RT and 08-16/32 U-RT. http://www.plasser.co.uk/en/machines/08164x4c100rt.htm http://www.plasser.co.uk/en/machines/081632urt.htm They are incrediable machines i think, certainly a refreshing...

So who here is a fan? For anyone who doesnt know, they produce magnificant Freightliner FLA lowloader wagons and accompanying HighCube containers for your Intermodal rakes. They also have a brilliant Class 143/144 due out in early 2012. There doesnt seem to be a thread mentioning them...

Hi. I have found myself wondering this: Why does Freightliner hire in DRS Class 66s for its Intermodal services out of Southampton when it has just put off lease 573-581 (all which were Intermodal Pools)? Surely if they have a demand for Intermodal pool 66s, they should not of placed 9...

Hi. Anyone fancy adding one or two =C-Rail= 40ft OOCL Containers to there Intermodal rakes? Two going on eBay :) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160592979755&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT...

With the official launch of the Southampton - WCML HiCube freight guage expansion project, I counted a total of 29 KTAs and 9 FLAs disused in sidings north of Southampton Maritime. (http://www.rail.co/2011/04/04/completed-rail-freight-upgrade-is-a-boost-for-britain/) Thus i ask, what is...

I would like to bring to the forums attention that currently on Ebay are two pairs of Hornby Wrexham and Shropsire Mk3 coaches in the recent silver livery that i am selling from my own collection. These are to a professional standard. If these sell for a good price, i could be tempted to sell...
