The Dukedog shouldn't be there. She should be running on the Bluebell Railway, her true home turf. Nice that you were a driver for a fiver, and you ought to have been riding the rails all day long. That's the thrill of a special event, meaning you can ride behind every single steamy in operation if you choose to.

the cambrian is literally the dukedogs 'home turf'. its the line they were mainly used on. its academic anyway, because short of finding half a million quid it isnt running anywhere...

@@overpoweredsteamproduction513 I know Traction Engines are powered by steam, but they don't have the same charm and appeal that steam engines on rails do, for me. Traction Engines run on roads, I prefer steamies that run on rails.

I noticed an E2 tank engine in the siding near the engine shed, named Clive. The volunteers ought to repaint him blue with red stripes, complete with the yellow no. 1 on his sidetanks. They could give him a face and rename him Thomas the Tank Engine. Bet you'd love a Day Out With Thomas on this wonderful miniature gauge railway.

That's what Clive used to be😂 They stopped doing the DOWT events, so to make use of the loco, they turned it into two separate one, Clive and Florence being the results. I have attended a DOWT at ELR before they went

I heard Brittania passing through my town outside my house on its way to Robertsbridge yesterday morning while I was still waking up. Didn’t know it was Britannia until I looked it up though. And I was gutted I didn’t know because if I did, I absolutely would’ve gone to see it passing. Love the 7MTs.
