    I think there is another point about life membership, which is that the CCBS structure is about providing a community benefit, and that makes it difficult to have tiers of membership that have different benefits. So for example you can have...

    Whilst I largely agree with many of the points you've made recently, I disagree on this. Pickering is important because it's the closest part of the railway to York, and the motorway network. At the time of writing, York to Pickering is just over...

    That possibility is much closer than most members realise. The most upto date accounts reveal a £250,000 loss and the year before it was £500,000. This year is likely to exceed both those figures simply because the line isn't fully operational....
