Yes; everyone might want to note that many of the more successful lines have in-house covered spaces. I was going to say that if there are two smaller lines close together, they might share a common facility for that - although I suppose they'd...

I disagree. There is a financial crisis albeit mostly due to criminal activity so you need to cut costs and increase revenues. Extending the line to Kelston/Saltford is a good ambition but realistically most visitors aren't going to pay much more...

57 marketing staff? Not enough in my opinion. I think they should employ at least 50 more, use the Station Hotel for office space, treble the admin budget, double the CEO's salary, buy a more diesels, abandon all steam, book a gala dinner every...

Sorry if this is already been covered, but I’ve just noticed that at least one of the posters for the Thomas event appears to be AI generated. When you have 57 marketing staff on your payroll I’d expect them to do a bit more than typing a prompt...

Great images; thanks for posting them! They show excellent progress! There's enough stone down now that the chances of the sides of the excavation collapsing seem now (to this total amateur at geotechnical engineering) to be minimal. The...

A new entry has appeared (Northbank Headshunt reinforcing improvement), but the 'disappeared' entry ('Passing loop') is still missing. (Not complaining - you all do a marvelous job of keeping us informed - just observing. Did it perchance 'let a...

Thanks Mike Goodwin. In reply. Plans aren't to lay the P Way in two phases as finished trackbed becomes available. Phase one of track laying will comprise the section from the old Salehurst Halt site back to Junction Rd with plans to complete...

She also seems to be missing the point that, at a fundamental level, income is largely related to the number of passengers travelling, whether they are bucket & spade carriers or people in their finery travelling on the diner - and a CEO with...
