Miff liked Steve's post in the thread Rother Valley Railway.
Not the first time it's been suggested. When the M1 came to Leeds the highways authority didn't want to build a bridge over the Middleton Railway due to the cost and asked what the alternatives were. The then chairman of Middleton (Fred Youell)...

Miff liked Jamessquared's post in the thread Rother Valley Railway.
Where there's a will there's a way! I mean, if the Kiwi's can put a level crossing over a runway, then what's to stop one on the M25? At least the vehicle traffic will inevitably be moving slowly, so hardly any additional hold up ... [MEDIA] Tom

Miff odgovara u temi Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
I agree with @35B - leave it to the railway and/or their planning consultants to refute objections, if necessary, in a professional manner. They will be watching, as anyone can, the incoming comments. Stating the reasons why the railway is a...

Miff liked Johnb's post in the thread 6024 King Edward 1.
I have a feeling that the animosity between WC and the other TOCs is largely manufactured by certain factions with the lineside fraternity and armchair commentators

Miff liked Jamessquared's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
Do L&BR carriages have a source of on-board power? If not, any carriage-mounted powered ramp is a non-starter - even ignoring the large amount of space it takes up. What might be a reasonable solution in a Mark 1 on a line with long carriage...
