    Missed opportunity to bill it as a branch line gala IMHO

    To prevent endless speculation and discussions such as this one on Nat-Pres, the NYMR should have learnt by now that instead of simply announcing that the AGM has been cancelled, they should have added a short note explaining why. <BJ>

    To me it looks like a pragmatic decision faced with difficult choices. I suspect firstly that, mid week, there is a fair amount of coach traffic. So if you have (say) two coaches for your morning train and two for the afternoon, then agreeing...

    To my simple mind, an AGM is to receive reports from the directors on the previous years performance, including the accounts, appoint any new directors and make proposals for the future. There's only the latter that might require further...

    Taking water from the River Test is nothing short of environmental vandalism. Southern England is home to 85% of the world's supply of chalk streams and the Test is one of the best known and most important. They are incredibly rare and valuable...

    I see it as a function room, eg bar during galas, or for hire / ceremonies. Our commercial people need to see it when it's finished, and then hopefully that will stimulate ideas. Previously there was a weed covered hole where it now stands, so...

  9. Paul42 gefällt MuzTrems Beitrag in dem Thema 6024 King Edward 1.

    With its cut-down boiler mountings and slimline cylinders, 6024's appearance is no longer 'authentic' for any part of its working life. So, arguably, it really doesn't matter what colour they paint it now...

    A lot of good points in there. To take the Bluebell as an example, we have something like 30 drivers, but only around half of them have diesel competence of some kind. Moreover, for the class 33 and class 201 that had generally lapsed at the...
