I'm sure everyone on Nat-Pres has sympathy with other businesses affected by the NYMR issues, that doesn't mean that the NYMR is liable for any of their losses. It's not a silly argument. If we take your viewpoint then I'm assuming you can prove...

@Jenno I’m only a very occasional visitor to the railway, but Grosmont holds a special place in my heart as we had a family holiday there in the early 60s, staying in the old railway cottages (no electricity or gas, earth closet across the yard,...

"Arguably did" doesn't mean "did" If they (you?) have suffered commercially because of a 3rd party, that's an obvious reaction. Whether it's an "honest grievance" might be more of a question - that would rely on proving first that the duty...

As others have stated, there is no positive duty of care to other businesses to supply custom. Unless you can show they relied on an express undertaking from NYMR. When was the last time you saw a utility company succesfully claimed against for...

I'd suggest you might not have much chance, and any responsible lawyer would tell you to minimise the damage. Meanwhile you need to stop assuming that the railway has "done" anything to those businesses - at the very least, you'd need to prove...

They would also have to demonstrate that the railway owed them a duty - which is rather different to the responsibilities of a highway authority. At the moment, the details of what is wrong with the bridge are unclear - and that means the...

Concern for local business is one thing, but in the absence of a contractual relationship, I can't see how you could ever make some form of compensation for consequential loss of the NYMR not running stick. If I set up a B&B in the village, I...

You win the most ridiculous suggestion of the day award! Roadworks are a completely different kettle of fish to a third party business having to temporarily close part of its business. What if the Co-Op removed its sweets and chocolate because...

Sue for what exactly? Being dependant of footfall being generated by a third party? It's not like any of them have contracted the NYMR to provide a service to deliver customers to their door.

Hopefully somewhere in the NYMR organisation there is a person in charge who has the vision/ability/drive to recognise all the problems/difficulties which might arise if access to Grosmont is not possible during 2026 (or longer), and can see...

No doubt an issue to be clarified! I must admit, I'm not sure of the basis of the "whole line" thing (but accept that that appears to be what the railway was initially advised). If you took an equivalent scenario in a country house, if the house...

A fifteen mile heritage railway is not exactly an unknown proposition, so I'd suggest a starting point is to look at comparable lines. Looking at lines of similar length (but very different base structures and therefore cost models); and just...

The bottom line is that someone has to pay. The Isle of Wight has a number of carriage bodies stored under cover in an off-site location, so it can be done. But that is the context of a railway that has a superb track record of restoring...

The challenge I think is that the heritage railway movement has by and large focussed on building and operating railways. The choice has usually been to build an extension rather than put things under cover. Often the buildings that are put up...
