  1. Jark91 gefällt Jamessquareds Beitrag in dem Thema North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

    As I recall, the NYMR changed its financial year (I think there was one 15 month "year") which would have a knock-on impact on when you could hold the AGM and probably explains a shift in AGM date from earlier to later in the year. I suspect it...

    Those figures are but one part of the wider whole, and if members' direct subscriptions are all that is being assessed in this equation, it is to not see the wood for the trees. I am well aware that staying afloat relies upon that support from...

    Traditionally the AGM was in the spring, most commonly on the Saturday before the operating season started, when the venue was the railway institute, after the start of the season once the memorial hall in Pickering was refurbished and that...

    I suggest you have that relationship the wrong way round; without the confidence of the support base, the lenders, regulators and grant funders are likely to be concerned about the viability of the model and, especially, whether the...

    For goodness sake, you were the person who declared what the motives are for the Jacobite - "profit for shareholders". I simply put to you WC doesn't necessarily follow the business orthodoxy you are wedded to. I make no claim to knowledge other...

    That's exactly what I said. You set a price point that the market will support. Given that it appears the train is fully booked for the rest of the season, West Coast seem to have got that just right. Shareholders? Not many of them in West Coast...

    Bingo, obtuse deflection alert!! You will never answer a direct question about something you've posted. It's always, what about, this that and the other, anything to avoid backing up what you've initially asserted. I'm not discussing the...

    You've said this before and been asked to explain how you see WC in terms of business orthodoxy? Still waiting. I challenge you to explain your assertion in terms of WC specifically, not "general business principles" or some obtuse deflection....

    No, no, no the cause of climate change is well known. It might have complex consequences but to a man, climate scientists will tell you that the cause is CO2. It's only the climate deniers that will tell otherwise. Richard Tice for one will tell...

    The hard financial facts suggest otherwise. The net financial benefit from member subscriptions is around 0.6% of the annual cost of keeping the railway running. It’s true that they also provide valuable support of appeals but around 50% of...

    Much the same as a very expensive trip from Inverness, north, having travelled from the London area, but I guess the lure of steam on the return leg made it all worth while. ;)
