An interesting response, because it seems to me that you have been saying all along the the NYMR cannot trade itself out of the hole where it now finds itself, and that staff reductions would not be viable. Infrastructure costs are one area...

I'm not a frequent visitor to the Bluebell and but there is a fundamental difference with the NYMR management in that not only are thay taking steps to deal with the economic climate, they have retained the confidence and support of their...

It is interesting that the Bluebell's annual report, as summarised by @Alistair in the Bluebell thread, seem to confirm @Lineisclear's assertion that there is an industry-wide problem, but that same report shows that the Bluebell's management...

For many, many years the Bluebell Railway had rich friends; from the surrounding area - what used to be known as “the Stockbroker Belt”. Rich friends who would donate money to projects such as loco restorations and overhauls, taking pressure off...

It’s also a mechanism by which the Trust can use its reserves to support the plc. It is, over time, making the Trust the biggest loco owner on the railway apart from the plc itself: 592, 263, 65, 488, 72, 90% of 80151 and seemingly soon 34059....

I guess the idea is to protect assetts. If the railway defaults on a loan then the loco cant be seized in lieu of payment. Sent from my SM-S741B using Tapatalk

I fear that 2026 has been a bad financial year for many of our heritage railways, particularly those who had to suspend steam operations for prolonged periods during the hot summer and drought. More broadly, the inflated prices for coal and...

"35 pence out of every £ in revenue on admin costs" may or may not be reasonable, depending on what is included under that heading, but if the figures of 19 admin staff, with 5 of them responsible for the (almost non-existent) marketing, is...

That strikes a nerve. I was that guy at one point “oh give it to Sheff, he loves a challenge” and of course you accept it … again and again. Until one day your mind and body decides otherwise. Lesson learned the hard way.

I know the income from Coach parties is a welcome one, but please can I urge you not to fall into the trap of another railway I'm aware of who appear to have largely sold their soul to Coach parties at the expense of walk-up and enthusiast...

Thank you, glad it's been thought through and isn't just a "we want to go further" project
