أعجب Paul42 بمشاركة DaveE' في موضوع Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
All in the notion of making the L&B something it never was and you loose the charm of the Little Train to Lynton. Some of the stations may be able to have longer platforms but to be honest, as soon as you do that, you loose that uniqueness and...

It doesnt look like it will be active for the 60th anniversary of its final BR passenger turn, the 20.50 Preston - Blackpool on 3/8/68. This was the penultimate scheduled steam passenger working - and I was on it:D. What a pity. Peter

Just as a point of interest. As we know the L&B is fairly limited to a maximum of 5 carriages per rake except for very occasional longer rake specials such as the closing of the line train due to platform lengths. Most platform lengths on the...

Colin, I really do admire your enthusiasm :) That said, while it can be speculated over and over here on loco and rolling stock options, the person who really knows what's needed or is viable is Stuart Nelhams our General Manager. He is very...

A “like” for that would feel wrong, but thank you for the explanation; and my heartfelt sympathy for your situation. Tom

A railway doesn’t need to own their own engines as the be all and end all. Look at the GWSR as an example. They only ever owned two small saddle tanks and sold both of them. Not one of their current or past steam fleet (with the exception of the...

This was the first time the system has been used on a broad basis and quite right too. Apparently issued at the request of the emergency services. It might drum some sense into those who seem completely oblivious to the danger, like the idiots...

Thread drift forgiven, this is an "SVF oriented" page because I volunteer in SVF. My apologies for the delay in the reply and thank you for the picture and , Tirano is a very interesting place when talking about railways, you have a fully...

I'm trying to think what may have happened at the top table to have allowed @Lineisclear out of his cage again. Will we see other Trust Board members posting on here once more or has he obtained a papal like dispensation valid only for himself....

That never works in my experience. There’s usually a number of, let’s call them messy individuals (other descriptions are available), who don’t clean up after themselves and expect others to do everything for them.

I must take my hat off to the signalmen who are responsible for the Brighton Man Line and East Sussex Coast lines. Today, a Statesman charter train was due to run from Derby to Eastbourne for the air show. By the time I checked Real Time Trains...

[My emphasis] The whole point of this, and previous, discussions is that the messaging about the role of ordinary members is not nurturing engagement.

Membership is a feedback loop system. The more the members are rewarded by genuine good news and progress the more likely they are to contribute and to increase their contributions, but it is a system that is equally detrimental in reverse, and...
