    A “like” for that would feel wrong, but thank you for the explanation; and my heartfelt sympathy for your situation. Tom

    Right, but I have no idea where that is, and of course I haven't read what he wrote. So I do have to rely on your report about it. I'm not trying to give you are hard time in saying I'll "take your word for it "; I'm just trying to be careful,...

    There is no need to take my word for it's the truth. Lineisclear has given his reasons on another forum why he is standing down. I'm not going to repeat why as it's not my place and it's his choice what and where he makes this public. There are...

    Steam and diesel locos, and carriages (including 41298, 41313, 46447 and a class 33) have been going backwards and forwards across the Solent to the IOWSR for years, on low loaders on the normal vehicle ferries. That is also how the class 484s...

    We'll take your word for it (for now). But so much happens behind curtains at the NYMR that the rest of us more or less have to grope in the dark, on minimal clues, to try and understand what's going on. The current top layer of management at the...

    I really wouldn't read anything into this. I believe there are personal reasons why Lineisclear has resigned that are nobody's business apart from his. I have seen an explanation elsewhere from him so let's leave the spurious speculation behind.

    Interesting. We shall see if that was a one-off, or if the clan/faction currently in control of the NYMR has started to crumble. Noel

    I'm trying to think what may have happened at the top table to have allowed @Lineisclear out of his cage again. Will we see other Trust Board members posting on here once more or has he obtained a papal like dispensation valid only for himself....

    There are two significant non-sequiturs in that. The first is that I didn't mention volunteers at all, but engagement - and while you suggest support is more than just volunteering, the statistics you quote are only volunteering related. The...

    Off piste a bit ,but this reminds me of a curious incident in the late 80's when I was deck-crew on the Sealink (as was) Fishbourne to Pompey run. Now at that time we had 4 vessels of the same design, all sister ships to the still running St...

    That's on the old Pikes tramway which is now the exit road from Blue Pool. It goes under the SR at bridge 11, Pikes Bridge.
