"Spring overhaul update The main focus of the overhaul remains with the boiler with the removal of the outer wrapper fire box sides. These are to be renewed utilising modern equivalent steels to replace the original nickel steel plate that is...

I think as much as anything it is the psychology; nudging £50 feels like a lot in a way that sub £30 doesn’t. Added to that is the change in “annual pass” fares. Last year you could get an annual pass for £49. This year it is £180. At which...

Thursday is generally one of the busier days of the week in terms of passenger numbers so why choose to shut on Thursday is an odd one. I suspect, but don't know, that those in charge, having decided to only open on five days, have been...

So what steps are the NYMR taking to comply with its responsibilities as you describe them? How are you monitoring and recording this and what steps might you take in the future to address working hours balanced with the needs of volunteers? From...

Does anyone on here know if there is any evidence yet of lower passenger numbers and/or lower ticketing income following the latest ticketing policy? I can't help wonder with the amount of feedback I've seen on forums and tripadvisor whether the...

Similarly what data shows you need to run more trains on Sundays between April and June and less from July onwards??

It seems an odd pattern of opening. You would think it might be better to be open all week for school holidays. Consistency makes planning easier, but I am left wondering (again) if the needs of the organisation are trumping the needs of the...

June is the diesel gala ,and end of Sept the steam gala dates so hardly random . However ,not running Spring bank Thursday and Friday ,probably the most popular single week of the year for holidays …surprising ,unexplainable,inexcusable….is...

Titles and hang ups. This is really for the 'wind me up' thread but 'Head of People'.....'Human Resources Manager'.......etc. What on earth was wrong with Personnel Manager? Why use one word when two will do. :rolleyes:

What the NYMR really needs, I suggest, is not a "head of people" but a "head of motivation" - rather like a roman emperor - but not whispering "remember you are mortal" in the ear of the CEO and other members of the SMT, but rather "remember...

You’re not wrong, but I do hope you don’t try implementing that policy using that sort of language. Demanding from me details like where I intend to be after I finish a duty would in my case result in me telling you where to put the information....

I think there's another angle here - and that is what value of work is done by volunteers, by department. Only when you cost that in as a notional cost do you get a true comparison. However, I do then absolutely agree on the next part of the...

Tom, re photos. I only send unsolicited photos to @Jonnie at the Spa Valley as I have a good feel ( I hope!) as to what he can use. But if any heritage railway, including the Bluebell, ever wants a higher res version of one I post here from...

You jest but I suspect you are probably near the truth with your scenario. The railway needs a huge daily income just to stand still. Based on last years published accounts, every day they are running they need to take £14,000+ just to pay the...

Thinking back to the the Great Yorkshire Steam Railway , whilst I appreciate made for TV there is a level of manufactured near crisis to be saved at the last minute, those involved at times came across almost as Perry/croft comedy characters ....
