Narrow Guage Paradise! New Year Steam Up At Bredgar & Wormshill Railway
Today we visit the Bredgar & Wormshill Railway for their first steam up of 2025! This little narrow gauge railway is situated in the stunning north downs in Sittingbourne, Kent.
The railway was opened in 1975 by a group of friends and has gone on to become a vast collection of narrow gauge locomotives from around the world. Also on site there is a collection of classic cars, steam engines and a 1901 beam engine which was fired up on the day.
Two Orenstein & Koppell of Berlin 0-4-0 'Helga' & 'Eigiau' were in service as well as the little Ruston shunter 'Bredgar'.
The railway is open every Wednesday for their diesel services and do host a number of steam events throughout the year so please check the link below for more information!

    The problem is that Richard Branson is jumping the gun on this scenario as there are more than Virgin Trains bidding to do this and the restricted train paths through the Channel Tunnel and at London St Pancras International, not only that the limited space at the Channel Tunnel train maintenance depot in the UK and the fact that the manufacturers have not received any firm orders from Richard Branson yet but pure speculation

      @abeing3 5 днів тому

      I mean the channel tunnel does have plenty of capacity still, the main issues are overcrowding at st pancreas which could be alleviated by either uprades, or better utilisation of Stratford, Ashford, and Ebbsfleet Intl; however all of the bidders claim to have sorted that out. It looks like the main issue is depot access as eurostar don't want to share their depots and nobody wants to pay to build a new on. Long term, while I doubt this would happen, there was a proposal for a connecting tunnel between HS2 and HS1, which could also allow old oak common to be used for international services and potential through running

    Personally if I had to put any money on Virgin selecting a manufacturer for cross-channel services, I would think they'd choose Alstom due to having a history of already working together in the past and because it could be a potential follow-up order to the TGV M stock or maybe even a non-tilting New Pendolino design like Italo's ETR 675. If they were to go with Hitachi I would say it'd be derived from an ETR 1000 (Recciarossa) design.
