Whoa whoa whoa Martin! Once again you're getting dangerously carried away. Bear in mind the WSRA statement on reform committed themselves to...
Come on Plc board, get a grip! You simply have to liaise with the WSRA for any sort of restructuring process to be effective. On top of that, that...
My "Best" was Sheffield to Bo'ness and back in a day - by public transport! The worst bit was realising the night before that the bus that went...
Ah apologies, I misread, although you don't necessarily need the total facilities to overhaul the engine to achieve it by daily steaming fees.
I'd be surprised if, having had their fingers burnt once already, the S&D Trust didn't move to a daily steaming fee next time round. I'm not sure...
The problem in a nutshell! :) Forgive me, but this view seems to have undue focus on the WSR Plc as an ordinary business. Now I know it's very...
Thanks for reminding us of that Ian, that makes more sense! :) And thanks also to @Lineisclear for engaging with us on here too.
Another reason why it seems to me other alternatives to transferring the Plc activities and assets to a new body should be explored. I expect one...
But surely if you're having an organisational restructure as the WSR intends you just need to make sure that the objectives of the chosen charity...
I think you're probably right, especially about it being best to think of it as a company-owned loco. I suspect we've been diverted to this other...
I don't think so, a chair can only use the power of those shares if those shareholders appoint the chair as proxy, which isn't a passive thing....
I fear this is, once again, overstated. The GWR Trust gave £250,000 to GWSR Plc to repair the landslip at Gotherington this year. The Trust's...
As I was in nappies 20 odd years ago, could you elaborate please (or point to somewhere that does)?
Nice to know that the WSR's shareholders take a close interest in the WSR then...
I think this is another example of the statement being a little contradictory, or at best not presenting a coherent position, thus: "Hence, the...
I do find it hard to believe that it is the only way. It would be interesting to know from @Lineisclear why he favoured that particular approach,...
Bailey seemed to think it was possible. I have no reason to doubt a senior officer of the HRA on that point, but whether it is desirable or the...
I agree. The Plc is part of the problem, so it must be part of the solution, but not the whole of it, it could risk undermining the whole thing....
That was clear from the outpourings on a normally "management-friendly" Facebook group when the announcement was made. But it would be unfortunate...
Fair dos then, that's very good of you!
