ghost vond Miff's post leuk in het topic Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
Whatever 'impression' Bradley Gerrard (Devonlive's journalist) wanted to give to readers his report did not state ENPA's reasons for refusing the application. I wonder if Bradley paid enough attention to the Officers' report or the committee...

Do bear in mind that PP was GRANTED in 2018 (see the archive, at https://www.lynton-rail.org.uk/story/planning-application-news for more details) to reinstate the line from Killington Lane to Parracombe as part of the project to continue to...

On a detail, planning officers did not reject Cricket Field Lane. Councillors did, after careful consideration, on the basis that it didn’t follow policy and where objectors could demonstrate fundamental weaknesses in the proposal in front of...

ghost vond Flying Phil's post leuk in het topic Windcutter Wagons.
Another first for the Windcutters! [ATTACH] This wagon went up to Leeds to have its wheel tyres "turned" to a correct profile. When it was unloaded I was told that it was actually shunted briefly onto NR rails so the first time a 16Ton Mineral...

ghost reageerde op het topic GWR four-cylinder arrangement?.
If that is aimed at me, then I have no problem with discussion, I just happen to think that Mr Hermod should build a loco if he wants to experiment, rather than butchering historical locos.

ghost vond pmh_74's post leuk in het topic Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.

ghost vond Mark Thompson's post leuk in het topic Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
