    Cast your minds back a couple of years ago when the future of the railway looked bleak. The new management introduced the policy of running trains when there is a passenger demand and of reducing the number of operating days. The main tourist...

    This depends on the timetable; if the service allows for a split shift then employee could be used by the railway on other tasks - possibly administrative. It could be that some administrative staff at Kidderminster could be trained to undertake...

    Even if the line is not running heritage services on a particular day, it doesn't automatically mean the line is available - railways use days (and weeks) with no trains to have planned infrastructure maintenance. That all gets more fraught if...

    Not negativity, just people being realistic why it can't and won't work. What would be the point in running through to Bewdley? To take people to Bewdley? They can get the SVR services that run there, or take the bus. To take people from Bewdley...

    The announcement suggests "a trial of through services". That does not imply commuter services seven days a week. It could be as little as one return trip on some days when the signal boxes are open for heritage services.

    Add in the security risk... are you going to leave stations unstaffed and risk vandalism/theft etc? You'd need to allow for security, even if you didn't have a booking clerk. Also, how much revenue do you get? Yes, you might get an eccentric...

    More than one though. To provide a meaningful service, even just peak hours Monday - Friday, each box will require two staff per day due to the length of day. In which case are they employed part-time just as signallers or full-time, and do they...

    The very best of luck to you and your fellow Trustees and volunteers. It must have been a devastating blow to get caught up in financial shenanigans. It sounds like you're facing the future with a good plan, hopefully one that is flexible enough...

    The OP did say "I received an email today with a copy of the latest weekly newsletter, the email said that the cost of propping so far is upwards of £650,000 and that there’s another 4 bridges that need propping" (emphasis added), so if correct,...

    There's also a big difference between getting someone to pop in for a few hours in the middle of the day to having someone turn up every morning or evening throughout the year.

    The Kidderminster platform extension has been completed. See the view of it using the SVR Railcam. It looks really good. <BJ> [IMG] Thanks to the SVR for the photograph.

    Thanks for posting those - most interesting. The original drawings for the proppings (visible here) show a slightly different structure: a pair of smallish square piers, underneath each up-/down-river support girder. They have actually built...

    I think there’s a lot more embarrassing stuff than that going on. I received an email today with a copy of the latest weekly newsletter, the email said that the cost of propping so far is upwards of £650,000 and that there’s another 4 bridges...

    That was dated 21st April. That was the last time they updated anything regarding the bridge. It's really quite embarrassing that they can't even be bothered with weekly updates about a project that costing them a huge amount of money, both in...

    But 31806 left 12 years ago, and would by now have been 5 years out of its boiler certificate.
