The fundraisers we used, paid for themselves, through a grant, that allowed us to get 20 days of work FOC. Its a dangerous item to hide the expenses, and pay on amount won, as they will go for the maximum, and potentially reduce the possibility...

That's not quite how I'd characterize 'Total Costs', which apparently went from £2,955K (2022) to £4,230 (2026); a 43% (roughly) increase, of £1,275K. (Of that, 'Wages' went from £735K (2022) to £1,210 (2026), an increase of £475K. That's a 39%...

These losses are unsustainable. How much longer is it going to be until the Railway's management finally wake up and look at moving the PLC to some sort of charitable model? The latest loss will wipe out the money generated by the "Fundraising...

As somebody who has raised substantial amounts in another field, you can be as professional as you want, and still fail. We used professional funders, and got little success, you almost have to be in the right place at the right time. The...

It is Maunsell brake third 2768. Still on the railway but body dismantled due to poor condition. I believe the parts have been kept with an aspiration to re build it one day. The railway also has another Maunsell brake third in better condition...

Across the heritage line world, there are problems, it seems. Is this caused by specific circumstances at each line (e.g. not keeping a close-enough eye on spending); or are the old ways not working anymore - or both? Noel

So were the professional fundraisers responsible for the two failed bids for Br.42 money and how much did that cost the Railway? And, if not, who was responsible for them? The PLC or the Trust?

I don't know if there's any point to posting that. If a poster has that view they should say it or shut up. I raise an eyebrow at a lot of the stances @Lineisclear tends to take, but posting that is only likely to make him disappear completely....

My personal opinion is that the whole Bridge 42 situation gives an impression of bad asset management practice. When you look at grants that are successful generally (wider than the NYMR) they are to add/restore something that will improve the...

After the recent RAIB report, can you blame them? Noel

Frames, loco wheels and possibly tender wheels I believe. https://www.flickr.com/photos/67444577@N02/51241705257/in/photolist-2n9dnA3-2m548JR-6ifiWe-dNc3Za-8ufi8Q-dyPYhn-2pbim8Y-29Dhr46

As a grant sceptic, I'm not sure that this would necessarily provide the help desired. My hunch is that it would lead to more intervention by the relevant authorities, with an increased focus on social gain. I'd expect demands for lower fares...
