The Class 47 and one of the Class 20's were rostered on a six coach set which was packed for most of the day. It was our third year of visiting this event and the amount of people turning up for the park and ride at Ropley today was astonishing....

Yes indeed. But it is perhaps the impression that the original poster gives of expecting the railway to provide a solution to a problem that they might not even have been contacted about that might diminish the tolerance otherwise afforded.

I don’t expect them to, although I’m not really sure why they fail to realise that this a a group of railway enthusiasts, who are likely to donate to appeals but do expect some transparency on where their donation is going in return. I wouldn’t...

Before venturing off my known patch I always consult my trusty Parkopedia app. It shows all public car parks (and even some private drives you can use), and the charges for whatever time duration you chose. Being Sunday evening the prices shown...

I will make a personal report (as a visitor) of the Chelfham meeting on my Heritage Herald blog, which comes out weekly on Wednesday evenings.

It’s not about being tolerant, David is complaining about the railway not having convenient parking for him, but doesn’t have any suggestions of a solution- that’s not fair on the kesr. I’m sure a phone call before travelling would have given...

So whenever the quantity of paid staff on the NYMR is raised, your first line of defence is to talk about the cost of volunteers and how difficult they are to manage. Never the positives of volunteers. Who said anything about Nat-pres? As Pete...

I’m not sure what you expect the railway to do? Buy up lots of expensive land to use as overflow car parks, just in case an 82 year old turns up and demands to park close to the station??? Please add a reality check to your list of jobs for...

Total GWSR employees - 22. Number of admin and marketing employees at NYMR - 17. I think I'm right in saying Spa Valley has around 7 employees, and yet they managed to put out a daily blog about the bridge replacement as well.

And 99% of people would regard your attitude to volunteers as demeaning, insulting and negative. How’s your policy of lots of paid staff working out for the NYMR?

Facts about what? John, with respect, If we are talking about that awards ceremony, it’s all there in black and white on their website. I’m not continuing this conversation here other than to say if those assumptions aren’t correct then why...

Maybe or maybe not. There are a lot of variables but while accepting a volunteer isn’t actually free it’s doesn’t necessarily go hand in band that a lot of part time volunteers cost more than a smaller number of paid staff. I could also argue...

An old argument about which there’s little new to be said. As I’m seeing in another context, probably the most important thing that leaders can do is minimise the perception of difficulty as people do need to take on those duties. As for the...
