lynbarn 回复主题: Bluebell Railway General Discussion.
Thanks, Alex, it might just happen in my lifetime to see both the Earl and the County both in steam at the same location, if all the parties involved could make it happen.

They hinted at in Trackside that Bluebell might be willing to allow another line to restore and run it but they'd regain ownership of it so I think it could happen that another line will express interest in restoring it.

In fairness, it was. The exception was when things got tricky in the run-up to the expiry of the 2018 planning, and in the “Parracombe or bust” behaviours that followed.

The Earl of Berkley, is she ever going to steam again? I was just wondering, as I see she is off on her travels to the Seven Valley Railway and if the Bluebell don't have the money to get back in steam, I was wondering if maybe one of the many...

Seems to me that the plan should have been to work with the authorities all along. :)

No the LNERCA haven't run out - we built up sufficient to restore all the carriages we then had, although since then we've acquired more carriages but, in fact, 4-5 years ago we bought a large lot from a timber merchant in Essex, who had stored...

Same with burning confiscated ivory. Perhaps the items should be sold and the monies raised poured into conservation & enforcement - or supplied to restoration projects. [also education to persuade certain groups that their ethnic medicines are...

All very clear. I do miss the late Paul Hitchcock sometimes. He had his monomanias, and one was on Railway structures, but at times you feel he did have a point about simplicity and clarity. Certainly in the case of major appeals, I'd want to...

Most of the stock at Didcot is actually owned by Great Western Preservations, basically just to protect the collection in the event the Society went under. So, it’s quite simple. You have the Hawksworth County at Didcot, which is owned by GWP...

Didn't they run out of Teak a few years back after all the salvage teak they had got used up? Something which bothers me a lot, and that is the burning of illegally felled Teak. OK, I get the fact that you don't want Criminals to benefit from...

Correct ! Including one that isn't "attached" to a railway ... and therefore isn't distracted by on-going / home maintenance needs.

As a bit of speculation, maybe they'll find themselves heading to the West Indies at some point.

Is that a surprise? I mean, surely you just look at the accounts and see which organisation has an asset accruing value at the rate at which money is being spent? I was always somewhat amused when people would ask, about Beachy Head, "who owned...

I think the plan is to work with the local authorities and people to work out what the best fit and solution would be having first demonstrated need and net benefit.
