    Could you provide evidence for this claim please?

    Near on impossible I’d imagine. Reinstating something that was already there is an entirely different prospect to building a something new, especially when it’s in the national park.

    Which doesn't actually answer my question at all ! Why does it need to ? And what has Marmite got to do with the manner of obtaining track-bed?

    The new relationship between the two trusts is very much still being developed, so I'm not sure how you can really understand yet how it might work, but regardless, as I've said before, no part of the project can buy anything unless and until the...

    There are many potential different grants and awarding bodies for different aspects of heritage, the environment, economic regeneration, education and so on but hardly any will award a grant to purchase land. It might be possible to apply for...

    Not my photo, but Sharpthorn going home after the High Weald steam rally. Since the location of this photo is Fletching, it looks like a slightly circuitous route was chosen - it's certainly not on the shortest route back! I think it is the same...

    The BYVRT is not encumbered by the issues created by multiple groups. The LBRT will have to address these legacy problems, and I think a period of focus upon that and running the Woody Bay railway undistracted by a desire to extend that the BYVRT...

    I don't know. I was just answering your question. If you have a strong interest, why not email the NNR directly?

    One railway perhaps. One Trust, probably not yet a while.

    Yes, and it also undertakes not to enrich Devon scones to greater than 3.8% jam on top for civilian use only, while in exchange the L&BRT will unlock billions in frozen assets and create a $300bn rebuilding fund, (Sorry - couldn’t resist!)...

    I’m sure you could go very granular in the modelling, but I suspect in the end you wouldn’t come too far away from those figures. For example, if people use their discount to buy gala tickets, the amount “foregone” is a bit more, but I doubt...

    Thank you for the clarification, which is appreciated. However, I stand by my comment. The key phrase was “as volunteers”, where you have taken a robust position on the interpretation of charitable objectives and the inappropriateness of taking...

    Well you have far more experience than me at adding useless layers of management. I don’t. I have taken a few out though. Why do you bother to read and reply if you hold so little interest in the discussion, especially as you seem not to...
