    This begs only one question in my mind; What was the guard doing? Why were they not turfed off at the next station and told in no uncertain terms they were no longer welcome to visit the railway?

  8. osprey liked Eightpot's post in the thread Tornado.

    The author Neville Shute in his autobiography "Sliderule" gave his opinion that in business there are two types of people involved. They are divided into the 'starters' and the 'runners', and are seldom combined in any one person, which rather...

    I don't have the financial involvement in the Trust that others do so I'm not really entitled to comment in detail. That said, I guess that if you rate yourself as a significant player in the heritage world, as the A1ST does, then one would think...
