Good work there, @Jamessquared What might be illuminating would be similar explorations of the data for other lines over the same period, with the...
I think the question then is what is meant by 'local craft producers', and perhaps whether what they produce lends itself to repeat purchases....
I have no particularly fixed idea about anything that's happening (or not happening) at the NYMR, but I think this is a very ill-thought out idea....
Wasn't it the SECR locos that were prefixed with an A? A for Ashford, B for Brighton, E for Eastleigh? I could obviously be wrong; I'm not really...
Well yes, but read the story. The Swanage has apparently gone cashless because of the lack of available banking facilities in Swanage (surely must...
I understand that for a period prior to his death, Adrian Curtis suffered from a debilitating illness that affected his ability to manage his...
Apropos of no one in particular, this thread has often reminded me of the old saying that the reason why academic disagreements are frequently...
Very well put. Since 'moving on' has been mentioned, I think Neville Lawrence's piece in the Guardian today is worth a couple of minutes of...
The difference between 'VFM' and 'getting rinsed' is often just a matter of personal perception. Expensive things can offer value for money. What...
Well, elsewhere on the internet there's this... [ATTACH]

The largest diameter coupled wheels on a British locomotive were 7'7" on the NER Q1 (LNER D18) which were built in 1896 specifically with a view...
As always there are good points here, but even as a GWR man I'm agnostic about what CoT may or may not have done, other than (like Mallard, or...
I would suggest that either "revised" or "amended" would have been a better choice of words than "corrected" as that implies that 126mph has been...
Simon, indulge me just this once, and go back and re-read what I said. In context here, I specifically applied Sayre's law (by quoting a previous...
Yes, which is why most university arts faculties are riven with ill-feeling and vituperous behaviour sooner or later, often on a recurring basis....
I think this is disappointing. I am agnostic as to whether Mallard broke 126mph, and I have absolutely no background in engineering, physics,...
Not many certainties in there that I can see to encourage confidence. Does it not occur to you that one of the reasons why many venues charge...
Calling it a round million and 40 FTEs gives an average annual wage per FTE of £25K, some way below the apparent UK average of £29600.
