MellishR 支持 RWJP 在 Swanage Railway General Discussion 内发表的帖子.
What an awful and ridiculous comment... First, there's no confirmation that the person in that photo is the person in question. It could be any Swanage staff member/volunteer who happened to have a camera with them or anyone else with a lineside...

MellishR 回复主题: West Somerset Railway General Discussion.
I seem to recall repeated claims that the WSR needed the odd half million or so every year for a backlog of maintenance, without which it would have to close; no reports of any such moneys being received; and yet the railway apparently still...

One of the things that I class as a part of the heritage experience when visiting a heritage railway is the issue of an Edmondson card ticket stamped in a dating press. It’s such a simple thing to do and provides an experience of something once...

Of course the big flaw to advance tickets on the NYMR is you still have to visit the ticket office to collect them. So unless you are after the discount there's little point as there isn't much of a time saving at all. What they should do is give...

I'm sorry if I am partly responsible for what some might see as a digression over passenger journeys on the NYMR but it was well intentioned and simply posed a question that I don't think anyone on here has yet answered, even if they knew. I...

I've always thought a big advantage of purchasing tickets in advance is the avoidance of delays caused by purchasing tickets on the day. I'm sure we've all seen trains delayed by passengers turning up just a minute or two before departure time....

The point surely is that the NYMR, like all heritage railways, attracts a cross section of visitors with a range of interests. They are not all in North Yorkshire just to take a day trip to Whitby or use the dining train but imho the NYMR's...

There's a lot to digest from posts over the last 24 hours. I remain of the opinion that Whitby traffic will remain the main source of revenue both to and from Whitby but there remains a substantial number of people who don't want to traverse the...

I received a communication today, which is self explanatory. "I read the National Preservation forum on the NYMR.... I am getting concerned people might think the poster called Richards who has recently been quite uptight about another member is...

This reminds me a bit of some of the conversations about the WSR, where everyone could agree that the line was too long, but no-one could agree on which end should be mothballed! The difficulty on the NYMR as I see it is that Whitby adds...

MellishR 支持 SECR 65 在 North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion 内发表的帖子.
I wonder if more could be done to encourage journey breaks and station exploration at heritage railways. It's sad how many people I see walk straight out the door the second the first train has got back in from a return trip (this experience is...

"Ba-da-bing", as they say. Perhaps more importantly, at that point, will anyone/anything be able to save the line? You're very probably correct - but what can someone who i) cares deeply about the line, and ii) thinks it is headed for the...

Is it too early to ask what colour the bicycles should be? Tom

It depends on the width of the road. PS. It's nice to see that so little of contentious railway note is happening on the WSR that thread drift is rife!
