    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...

    One of the key points about forging some actual progress towards the end goal of a reinstatement of at least a good section of the railway is that it is impossible to please everyone all the time.

    Yes, I concur; there is much to be discussed, and as far as I can make out, there are major differences between the groups. One is basically a membership group while the other is basically a shareholding group; each has an advantage over the...

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

    I am glad we got this far. I expect to hear more details in the coming months. It's a bit early to say we are just one Trust, but I feel we are moving into that area with the L&BR Trust looking into governance issues; I think this has just taken...

    I think the point is that the two organisations are at a point where they can do so. That is in and of itself a significant step forward compared with where they were not so long ago.

    Well the people involved would have to write and submit a bid to the HRA for that to happen. Often though projects completed largely by contractors don't do well as volunteer ones unfortunately.

    No grant awarding body would award money to the L&B (either group) so that they had money in the bank “just in case” a piece of land comes up for sale. Perhaps long term it doesn’t matter who buys what piece of land, but for the present the...

    If I understand the new relationship between the two trusts correctly, then does it really matter who buys what trackbed as long as they are both open and honest about trackbed purchases with each other? All that really matters is that it belongs...

    It was a good video, at the rate of purchase activity it won’t be long before they’re at 50%, what’s the situation with caffyns halt? I notice that other than the termini (and pilton if we’re being pedantic) it’s the only station not purchased, a...
