    Superb weekend and just like the good old days 50 failed Western to the rescue

    Hardly a “farce”. Rodney failed with a recurring issue and Indomitable had a mishap through no fault of its own. These things happen 🙄
    I’d rather give credit to the Swanage Railway staff for working overnight and pulling out all the stops to get Indomitable re-railed, and getting the service up and running for the Sunday

      Two hours standing on Harmans cross wasn’t fantastic but lucky we had the weather.
      Absolutely agree that the staff did a fantastic job to get 50021 moving again which performed well on the beer ex.
      And then 50026 issues, were both unpredictable and unfortunate but both incidents did cause disruption, known as a farce in some cases

    Why was it a FARCE a loco fails, Swanage's professional team swings into action and things resume as best they can ?

      The Swanage Staff were fantastic, however two hours of no service could well be seen as a farce.
      It’s just terminology used to describe the events that unfolded, nothing against anyone at Swanage

      Teeny61: Exactly ! The use of the word “Farce” by Rail125 is ridiculous, and undermines the fantastic work the Swanage Railway staff and volunteers achieved during the night to get Indomitable re-railed, the line open and up-and running for the Sunday service.

      Again, it is nothing at all against any of the staff at Swanage who put on an excellent weekend
