    It will take time but I'm sure you will come to terms with this. In a few years , following intense study and completion of a doctorate in railway history you may feel confident enough to post again!

    Apologies. I was answering part of a previous message but had missed that it had already been answered afterwards and had discussion about. I obviously never got to this last page! I blame the distractions of children! I've let myself down, let...

    And so it was John! Photted climbing past Bickley station and going well up the grade. Taken from Blackbrook Bridge where our (myself and @gricerdon ) hobby started many decades ago. When Dad and Mum drove their growing family down a lineside...

    I agree with the Spring Bank Holiday week, but Easter most schools were off before Easter and went straight back on the Tuesday. Early May Bank Holiday always seem a non event, at least it has for as long as I can remember.

  7. Spitfire liked 35B's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

    I work to an expectation like that. I also have contracted bours, and there are legal regulations about how long I work. For lower paid staff, there is also the national minimum wage to consider, if they are working unpaid overtime. As @Chris86...

    I don't see an inherent problem with paid staff volunteering for the same organisation, whether that is in the same department or another. (And I know it happens on our railway). In many ways you could see it as a positive in terms of...

  10. Spitfire liked John Petley's post in the thread Kent & East Sussex Railway.

    Thank you for providing a definitive answer on why the K&ESR doesn't publish a loco roster. I guess it's not the answer some of on here would like, but perfectly understandable given that the volunteers and staff do not want to be hassled by...

  11. Spitfire liked Jamessquared's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

    It's hard I think to be prescriptive. For example, consider two railways. Railway A has a large workshop with paid staff and does most of its overhauls in house. Railway B has no similar workshop, and sends locos and carriages away to be...
