lynbarn gefällt Brevas Beitrag in dem Thema North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

There has to be accountability of some sort, if you have paying members/shareholders or whatever you want to call them, if you are spending their monies you should be accountable for your decisions and be open and willing to answer questions that...

The growing calm is welcome. But, if I may mix my metaphors, the Augean stables weren't cleaned in a day and the outbreak of peace and proper governance doesn't mean all issues are fixed.

There is a back story here, and much of it can be pieced together upthread. As for whether a project should be run in any particular way, the core question here is about whether the project is being run in line with the commitments made to...

There has been a lot of water gone under that proverbial bridge, some of it very good and some not so. I would suggest that no one shoots this messenger, but I refer you to read the following and then to make up your own mind....

Could I suggest that you go to the L&BR website, click ABOUT, click L&B Railway Trust from the dropdown menu then scroll down to L&BRT Organisation Relationships, to myself it looks like the 762 club is an independant organisation which is asset...

It has been some time since I visited the STR, and to be honest, there has been a lot of water under that bridge since then. I have a feeling that the guys I got to know up there have all moved on; certainly one of them was working for the Brecon...

I may, or may not change my mind about my current level of support for the STR. I wasn't impressed with the goings on in January this year. I want to discover the outcome of that --- I think part of the reasons for the battery & diesel locos...
