Perhaps before we build a longer railway we should decide what livery the interior of the toilet cubicles should be? If we want a longer line we have to focus on what matters in the right order and proportion.

To be successful I think any scheme which will result in a significantly longer railway will need to: - be enthusiastically welcomed by local people - offer a range of interesting and exciting outcomes beyond just building the line in order to...

If the cost is £200M then I think we can forget it right now.

I didn’t say I thought the value for money argument was settled, rather that the Trust felt it had been. Bluntly, the trust is pursuing the wrong strategy if the aim is a longer running line. There is a lot of thinking that owes more to a garden...

It has been obvious for several years I think, that any attempt to significantly extend the running line will only be achieved by starting from somewhere other than the current operation. I realise that this is difficult, but the opposition to...

As I said before, Killington Lane as things stand has to be removed once the extension to CFL is built. A terminus in a cutting on a falling 1:50, is not desirable. ORR guidance is for a max 1:500 gradient through a new platform. If the...

Further discussion about how to resolve the 34105 situation here is unlikely to elicit any further information or provide a useful strategy to move forward as what is known will not be disclosed for what I hope are obvious reasons. May I suggest...

It isn’t hindsight. The relative unsuitability was well known before the decision. Albeit coal was cheaper when the decision was taken. The other thing that was not understood because of a now well understood (within the industry) failure of NDT...

It was National Lottery backed yes. If I recall correctly the main stipulation on use was about it having to operate in the Watercressline for a period before making visits.

You may see “Dave” + diesel a bit more. Indeed if the Alton set is 3+PMV which might be enough quite a bit of the time, then Dave could probably manage that on its own.

I understand your thoughts, but there isn’t really a parallel to the Bluebell in anyway. It’s adding about 500m to the line I think. There is only one reason for the scheme. The members are desperate to have a longer running line. This is a...
