    I’ve no idea who the candidates were, or whether the nomination committee decision was good. I also don’t care. The impression left, on top of the timing and delay to the AGM, is appalling, and can only leave an impression that the wagons are...

    I rather hope that bridge 42 if not required to carry trains wouldn’t actually need much rebuilding. If it has got to the stage where it couldnt even remain in situ without rebuild I rather thing it ought to have been shut to trains earlier than...

    You are right to raise the "what if" in the event that a donation is insufficient - this is why there should always be wording on charitable appeals. However, those are more relevant to appeals than restricted funds per se. For them, when I had...

    I'm sure @Lineisclear can indicate the likely view of NYMRT trustees on this. As a trustee elsewhere, I'd want to think very carefully about such a restriction, and how it might fit with what else we would be doing. And, as a donor, if I...

    I suggest that attendance is at least in part a function of the importance given to them by the organisation's leadership, demonstrated by the level of encouragement to attend and the space within the event (not necessarily as "AGM" business) for...

    I can partially agree with some of the above but I think the planned meeting needs to be a firm commitment, preferably with a date, time and venue fixed in the calandar which can be attended by members and all questions fully addressed. Perhaps...

    I'd suggest that ownership is less important than residence, and make it any locomotive resident at the railway and maintained day to day by the railway's MPD. Specifically on the availability KPIs, I'd also suggest that these should be weighted...

    More typical behaviour for some Nat Pres contributors is to only comment when something has gone wrong. I’m reminded of the very old Private Eye fake Daily Mail article:- TRAINS ARRIVES ON TIME SHOCK The 0847 service from Bristol to Par and the...
