    Other than starting from Waterloo and using the mainline to and from Woking it is just another Swanage Belle really. With the "added attraction" of 50 minutes at Brockenhurst (at 10C according to the forecast).

    A lot of people really do need to understand that the heritage movement is deep deep deep in the mire on almost every level. There is a very real risk of a line folding and I have a short list The hot summer will have killed cash flow with lower...

    That feels perhaps a more realistic position, though I still feel there are a lot of booby traps in trying to implement a Gift Aid scheme for a heritage railway. (Fortunately for everyone else, the NYMR has gallantly decided to "take one for the...

    That is one of the issues around the way Gift Aid has to work. I guess I am in your camp Steve in that a 10% voucher (in the NYMR instance) would be of no interest, so it just causes a price increase, where of course I would be happy to gift aid...

    I think you also need to ask what the locals regard as "acceptable" I know during the Wareham trial many locals we chatted to seemed to think the return fare should have been in the £5 to £10 range because they were "locals"
