And, where secondary spend is concerned, it always needs to be remembered that it is not £5-£10 profit to the railway, but £5-£10 income that has to pay the costs of what has been purchased.

Absolutely no criticism of yourself and sounds like a good deal for you, but one that costs the railway a significant sum in potential lost revenue (understanding that at normal cost you may not travel that often ) Problem with these deals is...

Thank you for the clarification, which is appreciated. However, I stand by my comment. The key phrase was “as volunteers”, where you have taken a robust position on the interpretation of charitable objectives and the inappropriateness of taking...

John, You are indeed correct in saying that a majority of the Trustees today are working members but that was not the case a couple of years ago when the appointments board effectively denied volunteers the right to stand in favour of outsiders...

For those who don't "Do" You Tube, the video confirms the ground investigation is all correct and presents no problem. The latest environmental survey has been done again with no significant issues raised. The Factory Flyover and Urban Viaduct...

Ah, what is needed is more managers, then managers managing managers. More meetings more policies more reviews. The bureaucrats answer to everything. It works very well in Government departs that are famous for their slick decision making and...

Elsewhere, away from railways, I’m involved in an ongoing governance review. It’s been prompted by an external review, and is looking at what we do differently in future. One thing that’s become very obvious is that “best practice” is a guide,...

One of the problems with the Trust Board was brought about by the introduction of the selection committee, for which the remit seems to have been to identify candidates with financial and accountancy or tourism backgrounds. Conversely, the...

I suspect that the underlying issue is culture. One of the problems of creating boards which have few long term working volunteers as members is that they become slightly detached. I have also watched more than once new board members who come...

I think, at the very least, annual passenger numbers for 2022-2026 should be published. With the new online booking system there will be almost instant data on ticket sales.
