ACHIEVING THE IMPOSSIBLE - AGAIN! - So you think running a couple of steam specials on a redundant freight branch should be easy? JELPG's John Hunt tells the story of the March 28 ^eardale specials, from Darlington - and outlines ~e extreme difficulties involved. ARPS CHAIRMAN BLASTS BLOOM - Simply the best and most comprehensive steam news section in the business! This month's developments include sharp criticism of the Bressingham Steam Museum Trustees, by Association of Railway Preservation Societies Chairman David Morgan, for their refusal to release the National Railway Museum's Riddles 4-6-2 No. 7001 3 Oliver Cromwell for restoration. Also, the Swanage Railway's acquisition of a large covered workshop at Herston - and the announcement that steam engineer Bob Meanley is to design a new all-welded boiler for the 'A I' Tornado project. MAILBAG - This month's digest of debating points raised by Steam Railway readers during the last month, sifted from the editor's postbag. DOWN MAIN - The end of steam over Saunderton Bank - David Wilcock laments the passing of steam on the Chiltern line - because BR has no guards in its Driver-Only-Operation plans for new Networker Turbo diesel units for the route. GALLERY - The pick of the crop of recent steam photography, by leading lineside lensmen - in black & white and colour REVIEWS - If it's not up to the mark - we'll tell you so! We look at some recent and new releases from the railway publishers and video producers. THE STEAM RAILWAY STANDARD GAUGE STEAM DIRECTORY - Part 1 - To accompany the free map ^esented with this issue, Chris Leigh provides further information about not only where to find standard gauge :eam in Britain - but also hat you might expect to id working.

A CENTURY OF STEAM ON THE M&GN - Steve Alien starts a two-part look at the North Norfolk Railway - where a I -in-80 gradient awaits the return to steam -hopefully later this year - of its unique Class Bl2 4-6-0. WORLDWIDE REPORT - WHY IS STEAM SO POORLY PROMOTED? - David Thornhill ponders why overseas tourist offices can tell visitors all about castles, beaches and golf courses - and nothing about steam! Also, whilst there is encouraging news about the new summer timetables for east German narrow gauge steam - the Harz 'double departures' seem to have passed into history MIXED TRAFFIC - The editor wishes a plague of boils on those in the general media who seem unable to report steam news without a stream of silly remarks! We all enjoy a good laugh - but is this mickey-taking really necessary? What do you think? Let us know! THE GLORIOUS YEARS - The second and concluding instalment of Ron Robinson's evocative black and white photographs depicting the BR steam years. You can almost smell the smoke! NEW STEAM TRACTION FOR THE 21ST CENTURY? - Former steam engineer 'Dusty1 Durrant puts his case that the design and construction of an ultra highspeed modern steam locomotive will be necessary if we wish to see main line steam running in the 21 st century.
