    And, as important, if I see that banner and am then charged for what it says is free, I am left feeling like I’ve been hoodwinked. That’s not good for reputation

    Just been on the NYMR web site. Clicked on the Thomas Event. Page came up with Thomas on it. Right above Thomas are the words KIDS GO FREE. I know that is not correct, but how many potential visitors see this, go to book and see the actual...

    well, there are a theoretical 2365 seats available each day. According to the booking site just now there are still a total of 2024 seats available tomorrow. On Saturday there are currently 1860 seats available. Make your own interpretation.

    The following is a copy of an email I have just sent to our volunteers, and is a great piece of news from the Spa Valley Railway. "Good evening, everyone, I have some extremely good news that I am delighted to pass on. I've just got off the...

    If 80135 takes water at Grosmont in the down direction it should be good to get to Pickering if there is no untoward event but it will be close. There was a prime example of this a couple of years ago with 80136 when the Ashpan sprinkler was left...
