Belgische Staatsspoorwegen 2-2-2 No. 'Le Belge'Posted by: Steve Frost on Mar 20, 2020 @ 13:03:18
The original was built in 1835 by John Cockerill under license to Robert Stephenson & Co's 'Patentee' design in 1835 and that company could well have produced this replica. Belgium was only the second European country after Britain to start to build railways and the state was involved from the start. Interestingly this was only five years after Belgium gained independence from the Netherlands.

British Railways 2-10-0 No. 92220 'Evening Star'Posted by: Russell Newman on Mar 18, 2020 @ 06:03:58
Today on March the 18th 2020 marks the 60th birthday BR Standard 9F 2-10-0 No. 92220 "Evening Star" the very last steam locomotive built for British Railways in 1960. From the moment she was built at Swindon works "Evening Star" was earmarked for preservation into the National collection but this fine locomotive only had a very short and brief working life of just 5 years. She spent much of her working life on the Western Region being sheded at Cardiff Canton and Cardiff East Dock Sheds and also worked on the legendry Somerset and Dorset Joint line where she hauled the very last Pines Express along the line in September 1962. Withdrawn from service in 1965 she was moved to Crewe for overhaul and restoration to be part of the National Collection. From 1973 she was put back into steam again and ran on the mainline again as the NRMs flagship locomotive as well as visiting the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway, the North Yorkshire Moors Railway and the West Somerset Railway. She ran till 1989 when she was withdrawn from service and returned to for display at the National Railway Museum where she is still on display but she also did visit her birth place of Swindon for a brief time on display at the Swindon Steam Museum in 2010. Sadly like all the BR 9Fs in preservation due to the middle pair of driving wheels not having any flanges on them its unlikely this locomotive will ever run on the mainlines of the UK again but during her time as a mainline runner in the 1980s she worked on the Scarborough Spa Express and over the Settle and Carlisle railway. Its unlikely No. 92220 will ever steam again but still has a pride of place in railway history as the very last steam locomotive built for use on the UK rail network 60 years on.
