    Ouch ouch ouch So it seems like £3 single/ £6 return for Nordon to bluepool . From the SW website: "Short Hop tickets – valid for travel from Harmans Cross to Swanage/Corfe Castle or Norden or the reverse. For a return short hop, please buy two...

    Over the years, there have been a few occasions when a visit to the box office of an allegedly full West End theatre has resulted in seats for me and my wife. Similar flexibility has been shown less often by some restaurants. I think service...

    At the NNR we’re currently undertaking a resignalling project at Sheringham which limits what we can run. Cream Tea reservations and advance sales meant that some trains were full on Sunday and a handful of visitors weren’t able to travel. Had...

    As I was in the area, I popped by the North Norfolk Railway on Sunday only to find Sheringham ticket office closed with a note to say all tickets were sold out - so there is another example of a railway turning away on the day trade. Judging by...

    Yes; I noticed, on looking closely, that one was a freight, and the other had carriages. Noel

    Different days. It's just that the uploaders have used similar thumbnails for the videos.

    Fish (Haddock) and small chips is £8.50 in my nearest chippy. (Ordinary chips is too large a portion.) I can get it for less but have to do a 5 mile round trip. Anyhow, getting back on topic, the vibes I'm getting are that the bridge propping...

    My wife and had a similar experience at the W&L a couple of years ago. In the queue to buy tickets at Llanfair the family in front of me was told that the train was fully booked. They turned around and went back to their car. I was then told the...

    I think it's not impossible that a hastings diesel unit might have been allowed on a trial. The class 04 Dewry Diesels weighed 32 tons on all of the bridges all three axles would have been on the bridge at one time. Apart from Austen's bridge...

    As a family we enjoy eating out, and we do eat out when we can... but we're definitely doing it less than we were 2-3 years ago, and the cost is a large part of that. It's not just 'can't justify the cost', it's that on top of the increase in the...

    The problem with alienating one sector of your customers, in this case enthusiasts, is that it limits the resilience of the business. You can be sure that if the line suffered a major infrastructure failure (landslip, bridge etc), they would be...

    I can state with a great degree of certainty it wouldn’t have been more economical to steam 7802 vice the consist that did run. Those saying it was needed clearly don’t understand that it may be mild at 12pm midday, but in the monring at this...

    They don't have the option, due to the platform lengths (already extended at Embsay), and they run more or less fixed formations.

    They're only on the menu (which means they have to be stocked, requiring storage space - overhead - as well as prior purchase, so they can be served when ordered) because there is demand. So there must be demand. Noel
