  1. Biermeister liked Miff's post in the thread Rother Valley Railway.

    In a sense that's not an unreasonable starting point since that is how the rest of the crossings on the KESR are currently operated including the two on the A28. But they only needed to look at the planning documents, or the RVR's publicity, to...

    I suspect that is likely, I just *hope* they aren't going to be disruptive when the line reopens and will be grown up about it all.

    Nothing to worry about then :) I imagine installation of the level-crossings will cause considerably less disruption than the National Highways works. Quite possibly no more than one weekend road-closure at each level crossing site (on dates...

  4. Biermeister liked Dead Sheep's post in the thread Rother Valley Railway.

    Reading through the Robertsbridge Family Facebook Group pages, the complaints appear to come from the same individuals repeating themselves many times. They proceed to argue until they are blue in the face with the majority of posters who appear...

  5. Biermeister liked Michael B's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.

    My point precisely - Mike Whiteacre, already a Trustee, pitched in to be Chairman for the dismissals resolutions, convinced me that he is level headed, and that I might be able to rely upon him to be one of the 'good' guys. A potential...

  6. Biermeister liked Fireline's post in the thread Kent & East Sussex Railway.

    Hmm, I see what you mean. I don't think we publish a full timetable for the web site. I can't remember if the timetable leaflet still carries it. In theory, on a one train day, all services should be steam. On a green timetable, trains 1, 3 and...

    True, but.....there is already 1 on the Board whom most of us would regard as 'good', so 4 + 1 = 5 :-)

    The assumption must be that there is already one 'good' trustee in-post.

  9. Biermeister liked 35B's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.

    I fear that it may be wishful thinking. Normally, I'd say that an AGM of a parent company shouldn't get into detail on a subsidiary - it has/should have it's own AGM, and the accounts go to it's shareholders. However, this situation is slightly...

    I agree. Endorsement is a guide, but one amongst several available to any member willing to read the materials provided. There is plenty of information available to help assess the candidates, and the impact that they are likely to have on the...

  11. Biermeister liked simon's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.

    One would expect legal costs, stamp duty etc to be capitalised as part of the acquisition costs and not taken to the p&l account. Insurance one would expect to be a recurring item is will affect every year. The inspections might have pushed the...

    There will inevitably be a bit of a hiatus, as voting slips are being received and sent in, and most people have decided how they will vote by now, but I'm sure things will liven up again on or about May 11th! Talking of the L&B, has anybody...

    Thank you - I certainly feel older quite often. I can recall hearing the news on the 1 o'clock news just before going to the refectory at school. Remember what he produced in such a short time, and imagine what he would have achieved had he...
