Perhaps the good Colonel missed a trick! He did just about everything else to make minor railways minimise costs and maximise income.

أعجب ghost بمشاركة Sidmouth' في موضوع 6024 King Edward 1.
I never said that at any point . My observation was that your own society records , as I read it, shows a very significant contribution from "they". I have no foot in either camp LSL or 6024 , I sit as a total outsider and having watched other...

One would hope that the website is consistent with the Trust's articles/constitution - and that if that has changed, the website has been kept up to date.

المشاركة في موضوع Didcot Railway Centre.
It will be interesting to see any effect on the funding stream if the loco is to be brought into the Didcot fold, and if this is seen as a restrictive move with the loco potentially becoming a static exhibit after its' first boiler cycle. I...

All very clear. I do miss the late Paul Hitchcock sometimes. He had his monomanias, and one was on Railway structures, but at times you feel he did have a point about simplicity and clarity. Certainly in the case of major appeals, I'd want to...

Most of the stock at Didcot is actually owned by Great Western Preservations, basically just to protect the collection in the event the Society went under. So, it’s quite simple. You have the Hawksworth County at Didcot, which is owned by GWP...

Maybe not a surprise, but it is news I think. From the County project website "The Churchward County Trust Ltd (CCT) was set up in January 2018 as a wholly independent, not-for-profit company (Limited by Guarantee), and was awarded Charitable...

Even if you went in with a clear plan, it sounds like it could take a while to feed through. For example, if (as it sounds) all the locos have boiler tickets aligned to fall over the closed winter maintenance period, then it is not easy to...

أعجب ghost بمشاركة 35B' في موضوع 6024 King Edward 1.
In which case, it has to be asked why LSL chose to spend so much money on work on 6024 when it was so nearly ready? This outsider, with no axe to grind either way, finds that surprising - unless there were issues with either the work done or the...

Without comment on any particular location, “getting people out” hasn’t been a particular problem at Woody Bay, so I don’t see why it has to be a major issue at the Barnstaple end. The railway would be selling primarily to tourists, not...

Other restoration businesses specialising in “the conservation, repair and restoration” of heritage items, including “railway carriages in several gauges” are available! ;) Tom

أعجب ghost بمشاركة 2857Harry' في موضوع 6024 King Edward 1.
I don’t particularly have a side to bat for with the whole taking 6024 to bits again, and re-doing it argument. However, what strikes me is LSL have accepted 60007 and 71000 with minimal fuss, they didn’t accept them and then take them to bits...

Just back home after our first visit to the Bluebell and wow, what a railway! We had a fantastic day. Good timetable with plenty of services at good intervals which enabled us to see everything we wanted to see, stop off at the intermediate...

أعجب ghost بمشاركة 21B' في موضوع Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
I agree. The first problem I think with Parracombe is that those most affected do not want to be a destination. That I think given the local infrastructure is a valid concern and a valid objection that could well pose a significant issue to...

GER coach no.14 has been purchased and arrived on the railway the other day, a significant addition to the railway as it’s the only known surviving coach that ran on the original mid suffolk, looks great. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
