Keeping your supporters on board and informed is a key attribute of any organisation. It amazes me the a CEO with a background in marketing and publicity does not know and understand this. I had the pleasure to be introduced to @Jonnie of this...

But in the context of recent discussions on here about the need to engage volunteers and gain their support and financial support, why not say “legally questions are not allowed, but in the interests of openness and keeping everyone on board, it...

Tut tut Mr 48DL, there is no ampersand between Manning and Wardle, merely a comma. ;) Mind you, the modern company doesn’t even have that.:(

It’s a very convenient excuse for the ruling class to avoid any questions that they don’t like.

I think that's another of your legally correct and emotionally wrong answers! In other words, I have no doubt that your reading of the law is correct. But the NYMR desperately needs its stakeholders to feel engaged, and being able to ask...

IIRC, the last visit of Flying Scotsman took place in Autumn 2925, and brought in around 400K of late season income the railway would not normally have, and which doesn't seem likely to replicate this year - so that distorted the reality of the...

What really matters is not the popularity of a post, or conversely its unpopularity, but how relevant it is. Heritage railways, though they may be run by companies, are in reality not true companies but are hybrid variants, and really also...

I understand 80135 is planned to enter service in 2028, along with 34101. There was a grand plan for locos published a couple of years ago but I can’t find it anywhere now. It certainly included 75029 but not 76079. I think that there is a loco...

There was an attempt to change things last year when the then plc chairman, Chris Gee, started posting on Facebook, providing information and answering questions. It was a breath of fresh air but it only lasted a few weeks until he resigned...

All of those parties have some interest in the railway's continued existence, which depends on keeping various other parties happy, notably the customers and the volunteers.
