You're making a big assumption that the money is available for anything you want which is often not the case. The people who donated to the 762 project did so because that's the thing they want to spend their hard earned cash on. They might just...

It ought to be just the one railway, but the very existence of separate organisations for separate sections of the route suggests that some of those in charge don't see it that way.

ghost liked Sidmouth's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
I think that is probably an unfair comment and I'm not previous GM's #1 (or anywhere in the top 50) fan , given we crossed swords a few times . Running a heritage railway is not for the feint hearted . I think we all appreciate that heritage...

Absolutely, the railway needs to get the job done properly, but that does not stop them communicating properly as suggested by @cksteam in post 9280

The third answer also applies to when will work start and how long will it take. I find it absolutely baffling that so little information has come out about it in the seven weeks since the closure was announced. They should be shouting from the...

It is my understanding that 762 was paid for and is owned by The 762 Club Ltd and therefore did not cost the railway anything (in the same way as you have explained that the railway didn't pay anything out for the transport company).

ghost liked Old Kent Biker's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
Colin, Not for the first time, I have to disagree. ;) What the L&B Railway project needs, is not more, or fewer, Organisations; what it needs is better, clearer organisation, structure, communication and direction. In recent years, there are...

1. Please don't look her up, except to get an impression of what she has done. I am absolutely NOT suggesting her. 2. It is not for you, I or any other random member of a society to go and approach consultants about projects we're interested in....

I think the difference there though, relative to the OP's question, is that South Devon Engineering is a substantial contract business doing work mostly for other organisations. In that light, keeping it at arm's length from the host railway...
