38 GREAT WESTERN BY ANY NAME!
The Paignton to Kingswear line has just undergone the latest identity change in its 38-year heritage era, and is now known as the Dartmouth Steam Railway & Riverboat Company. Maybe a little long-winded to some, the new name accurately summarises Dart Valley Railway plc's latest expansion drive, to build on the success of its Round Robin trips and create a unique rail-sea-road transport network serving the South Devon coast, including resorts well outside Torbay. With, of course, classic GWR Brunswick green-liveried locomotives plying their trade at its heart, writes Robin Jones.

64 MOVING THE MILK TO LONDON
The establishment of railways in the 19th century opened up opportunities for the products of agricultural communities to be swiftly distributed to the growing urban market of the expanding industrial cities. One of the traffics soon carried by the trains was that of milk. Malcolm Batten describes a category of traffic lost to rail many years ago, with illustrations from Reg Batten dating back to pre-war years.

68 ROCKET-ING INTO THE EIGHTIES
Rocket 150, a Duchess back on the main line, the Ffestiniog and Severn Valley attaining their goals, steam to Kyle of Lochalsh and Mallaig, more vintage engines in steam and Flying Scotsman on a Royal Train. There was just no stopping the progress of Britain's heritage railway movement. Robin Jones and Brian Sharpe recount the highlights of another momentous five years in the history of preservation.

84 STEAMING BACK TO THE FUTURE
Is 'new-build' the way forward for steam preservation? Tornado has filled a big gap in preservation, and in doing so, perhaps proved that others could be filled. Kris Kapolka suggests some controversial new-build projects to perhaps fill some of those gaps.

94 STEAMING AHEAD - WEATHER PERMITTING!
The summer of 2010 is already one of the driest on record, especially in the north-west, but this is not welcome to all tourist attractions, Hugh Dougherty reports from the Western Isles where steam operations have been put on hold.
