That is exactly the problem. If the NYMR keeps on loosing hundreds of thousands of pounds per year (as it has for several years now), it will inevitably wind up filing for insolvency, and some asset strippers will no doubt snap up the most...

I think there are people who have long associations with the railway waiting in he background who are at least willing to help or advise with forming a new, better management group. I don't regard myself as one, because work has meant living...

The first thing to do is build a consensus. Frankly, the tone of your posts on here are probably the single biggest seing factor for the current board. A continuous stream of frankly aggresssive personal attacks do not inspire confidence.

I'd start with a competent and clued-in management team.

In answer to your question, "probably not" is the answer! It seems likely that most people on the Trust/Plc boards and SMT would be quaking in their "boots" (more likely to be of Gucci or Manolo Blahnik origin!)

Heritage railways, as I keep trying to convince people - unsuccessfully, apparently - are not, fundamentally, businesses. Yes, they have business-like aspects - in that income has to exceed expenses, they have employees and assets, etc - but...

What constitutes a heritage railway? I'd argue it is its general ambiance, comprised of buildings, locomotives and rolling stock, signalling, scenery etc., and the manner in which passengers arrive there, whether by car or coach (other means...

In addition to what I have previously written, I think there are some glaring mistakes in @FredKerr's last post. Whilst it is true that the NYMR, like most heritage railways benefits mostly from non-enthusiasts filling the fare box, it still...

I have to disagree with your analysis. Whilst agreeing that heritage railways need to diversify their offering, it is all too easy for lines like the NYMY to shy away from offering anything but a standardised offering of BR Mk1s and BR/LMS...
