    As I understand things, if you volunteer on any heritage railway you are covered under the railways employees liability insurance provided that the insurance does include volunteers, which is the norm. You don't have to be a member of any...

    After a lot of soul searching I’ve just renewed my membership. £60 is a lot to pay for four poor magazines a year ( I get free travel in any case) but I do want the railway to survive and prosper and being a member is one way to support it.

    I’m sorry but I regard that as a somewhat silly reply to a serious post. Have you been a railway GM or Director or Trustee? It isn’t about creating bureaucracy it is about understanding how a place works and addressing where it doesn’t. We are...

    couldnt agree more. The failure by the HRA advisors and advice to recognise this is lamentable. Furthermore, the failure of many directors and trustees to be able to wear more than one hat is an issue….. by which I mean: Railways are typically...
