How does the village support the railway currently?
I’m not sure that was the point I’m making. Those like me out for the train ride and scenery will probably have a brew at the station (instead of...
I’m sure plenty will spend their spare cash in the village. There will also be those like my family who had a return trip last year, pottered into...
Keighley had reopened. I’d recommend a visit to Ingrow West for both the VCT and Bahamas Loco Society museums. There’s also an exhibition with...
Yes that’s obvious. My point wasn’t that all costs were variable but to challenge the point that reducing services doesn’t save costs because most...
Which rather confirms there is variability in costs
But if most costs are fixed the why not operate daily as each extra train only needs a marginal revenue to exceed the marginal additional variable...
I think that’s missing the point - you do have to look at both. Revenue may be flat but if it is earned from fewer miles then variable costs will...
The fact they are running a diesel suggest the offset may well be higher.
Is this not a too simplistic argument here - taking the logic that the saving in fuel cost is the only variable would that mean the marginal cost...
Visited Rhyl today with newly overhauled Billie working double headed with Joan. Billie makes four active Barnes locos (Joan, Billie, Michael and...
An enjoyable day at Ffestiniog- first visit since 2013 (shamefully!). Great fun to have a footplate ride on Hugh Napier - though a passing 143...
Presume to get to Bury for 10 you are in Manchester by 930. There’s a 921 Victoria to Hebden Bridge 951 and the B3 bus from the station at 1010 to...
I think the view on his site is from the rear. A front view showed Hugh Napier lending a hand too.
Is the boiler off 9 as part of the asbestos work? Paul
I'm not aware of a limit on shareholder numbers. Ltd is a Private Limited Company and PLC Public Limited Company. The difference is how the shares...
The 15in gauge line at Blackpool Zoo has returned to use after a few months disuse due to an engine defect on the loco. It’s still the original...
Why single out the FR for this issue, after all trains on the national network are all locked and presumably a similar risk applies to the person...
Just spotted this - the line is still in operation and was observed over Easter.
The track was relaid earlier this year and includes a point towards the yard. BlackpoolTrams.info Thornton Gate was a coal yard (coal trains...
