    And in that story we have some of the difficulty - especially whether the funds provided are shares, or donations, and in what proportions.

    Lots... Depends which but of normal you want back. For fire-risk reduction purposes in the short term, a week of steady drizzle would probably be best, as it gets all the dry dead stuff damp, which is the short-term problem. For a longer-term...

    That's possibly more a reflection of your lack of understanding (and/or utilisation of stereotypes) than anything else. A drought can be well defined as a loss/absence of expected resources (less rain in Britain's maritime climate), rather the...

    All I could see from those is that the filing is up to date. Nothing to see; move on. If you want to create a stink, go and look at the Teifi Valley Railway. So I'm left to conclude that maybe he doesn't like the individuals who are named as...

    What exactly is the point you are making Colin? Those links go to Companies House and the Charity Commission - are you asking us to read everything on those sites to try to work out what you think the problem is?

    I guess it is not beyond the realms of possibility that, given it is early days, crews are still finding the most efficient way to fire the loco, so conceivably costs are higher now than they might ultimately be. But (assuming the "12 tons of...

    6695 is still on site but stopped for firebox repairs. It was expected 6695 would replace the Ferrum until the Avonside was ready, but that plan was foiled by the 6695 firebox issues. It is planned to send the Ferrum away for overhaul and it will...

    Do all three boxes (two at Bewdley and one at Kiddy) need to be open for this to run? If they do, as it's more than a 12 hour day from start to finish, they should really need two shifts to cover it. 6 signallers, two drivers, two guards, four...

    The Ff&WHR usually puts a post on facebook of which locomotives are planned to operate which trains during the coming week.

    I must admit, almost every other heritage railway is clear about which services will be diesel hauled, both pre-planned and short notice, be it for fire risk or failures. Most publish a loco roster at least a week in advance...
