    A new website is in preparation, at https://byvrt.org.uk, but in the meantime, email membership(a)byvrt.org.uk

    Thank you! Both old websites are out of date, with the EA one apparently still looking for shareholders and the YVT one saying the only 'Members' are the trustees. No doubt the new website will resolve this :)

    Thought the priority was to build the railway between Woody Bay and Blackmoor Gate which has the facility for a large car park. Then there could be a shuttle bus to the Lynton Cliff railway for any day trip tourists who want to go the full route. There is still a problem how to get through, or round, Paracombe.

    That is the plan! I've just put a note into the footers on both sites! :)

    That is the priority, but there are, as you say, a number of obstacles making that less easy to achieve: "The best-laid schemes o' mice an' men / Gang aft agley."
