Seems a bit of a Hail Mary, hoping for some deus ex-machina to sort things out. The contribution to the local economy/community is alluded to in...
Thanks. I am a bit surprised that 5699 has not had the mods (which involved a new blastpipe top and mods to the chimney). The potential for carbon...
The Locomotive Engineers' Pocket Book (copies are available secondhand) gives advice on various design parameters. If you need a loco to do a...
BR made some effort to improve the Jubilees' steaming in 1956, comparing an improved single chimney and a double chimney and blastpipe mods in...
Is this assertion based on preliminary 2024 results of the Bluebell? The PLC made a loss in 2023 (the last filed accounts) of over £300k (although...
If you read the paper to the ILocoE, there seems to have been considerable scepticism about the validity of some of the testing, missing data and...
The Locomotive, as an industry journal reliant on industry adverts, was inclined to be enthusiastic/uncritical in its descriptions. As to why a...
So am I. The P2 material leaves more questions than answers. A mystery which no-one seems to explain is how the cams worked. I think in Caprotti...
I think the Franklin poppet valve gear on the K4S 5399, the first loco to be fitted, was the so-called "Type A" i.e. oscillating rather than...
Agree. It seems to be a bit of a stretch to associate "strong secondary spend" with repeat visits - how in practice can the PLC identify who is...
Is BLL a plc? It appears to be private, indeed the articles state on the first page "private company limited by shares". Setting that aside, at...
Could well be the case although with due respect, I doubt if BLL and SLL would be viewed in the same league. As I said, some volunteers are...
That's is not the same though. I admit I have not read through the constitutional docs of the Trust but I suspect it is most unlikely that an...
Well the obvious one here is on sale of the loco.
My question was not so much about the personalities involved but the concept of providing voluntary labour for someone else's benefit. So in view...
Thanks. I understand that the structure has evolved pragmatically to suit the circumstances but I do wonder whether a non-shareholder would find...
Do you think having the current ownership structure (private limited company, apparently beneficially owned by a number of individuals, the...
I I am not sure if you are considering the principles or just the T&C as is. Presumably it is relatively easy to alter the T&C. It would be...
Presumably the reason why refunding donations is not permitted by the applicable law is to prevent round-tripping and generating bogus tax...
? Assuming we are looking at the same set of accounts, Note 18 says nothing about a guarantee having been given of certain of the plc's...
