المشاركة في موضوع Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
Time can be, and is, a great changer. And with the L&BRly we're talking in increments of a century. What I'm trying to say is that just because something is how it is now, it will not remain so indefinitely. But sometimes, one does need infinite...

I agree, at least in the sense that this doesn't need to be an "Us versus them" sort of situation. The important thing is that the land is the L&B owns the land into Parracombe, and can be a good presence within the community if/when trains get...

أعجب Mark Thompson بمشاركة Jamessquared' في موضوع Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
Yes, and it also undertakes not to enrich Devon scones to greater than 3.8% jam on top for civilian use only, while in exchange the L&BRT will unlock billions in frozen assets and create a $300bn rebuilding fund, (Sorry - couldn’t resist!)...

أعجب Mark Thompson بمشاركة ghost' في موضوع Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
No grant awarding body would award money to the L&B (either group) so that they had money in the bank “just in case” a piece of land comes up for sale. Perhaps long term it doesn’t matter who buys what piece of land, but for the present the...
