I disagree strongly. "There has been an incident involving Hagley Hall at Bridgnorth shed. An internal investigation is underway" (preferably accompanied with a picture of the sort that have come out on X) would show transparency, and undermine...

In the age of social media and smartphones, communication is crucial. This strikes me as a situation where the SVR would have been better served by owning the narrative from the outset, rather than referring to a collision simply as an...

And the question asked was about the NR owned section on which NYMR run. It's IMHO a reasonable question, but one that cuts to the heart of risk analysis.

Not really, it is a matter for the infrastructure manager of the railway in question. The NYMR is independent of Network Rail. It is up to them to have their own risk based decision, based on whatever mitigations they have in place. I can't...

‘I do it to make a profit.’ ‘But how can you make a profit? You lose two cents an egg.’ ‘But I make a profit of three and a quarter cents an egg by selling them for four and a quarter cents an egg to the people in Malta I buy them from for...

It was more about the opportunity cost of having 60007 permanently resident, but being best suited to high days and holidays, compared to a more versatile loco which could reach Whitby daily. I'm unconvinced that using 60007 frequently brings...

I agree that leadership should be at the core of the role and that the people entrusted to lead each department should do the day to day running. Unfortunately from what I have been told the culture is that of blame, lies and micromanagement...

You'd think that, with so many non-enthusiasts filling the marketing posts that the enthusiast events would be mediochre and the non-enthusiast events would be a success. Alas, it seems not to be the case. I believe that the week long Thomas...

It's a familiar story around the railway I think - lack of investment. @Steve has already recounted how the loco maintenance budget is pitiful and we know that the PWay and civil engineering side have little to spend on routine maintenance....

I think there's a third leg to this, as the other two are really only facets of senior management (as distinct from task management). Over and above those two, the role of a Chief Exec is to set the tone of the organisation. There's a layer...

I had no idea 44806 had been sold to Peter Best but still kept at the railway. I wonder what the benefactor who bought it for NYMR a number of years ago thought of that?? A bit like selling on a very generous valuable Christmas present you've...
