    I'd probably choose Bury. But the distance travelled for a kids' event might well bias me towards Pickering - travel isn't necessarily the key thing for a kids' experience (I still remember Santa at Didcot much more than many other trips out as...

    And I think his observation about public benefit was correct, but taken to an absurd and organisation threatening extent by his contempt for the views of members. In that top down managerialist view of organisational structure*, the value of...

    You are of course talking about a legacy that does not exist until the person in question passes away, I don’t think any of us should be wishing for that just to save a railway. I suspect you would need to find money from elsewhere and I’m not...
