    The VLR scheme is very much still in play, there are very few things peak rail can do with the reach and resources they have, what they can do is establish a visible presence on the ground in buxton, a lot of things are changing in the town and...

    Sad but true. I've lost count of the number of relaunches of this proposal. If a single mile of track had actually been built every time it's been resurrected they wouldn't just have reached Buxton by now - they would have reached Manchester...

    We left the lead 37 at Goathland presumably to help work the diner back. No issue with the loco failure, as I say I accept these things happen, totally understandable.To leave a packed train standing for 25 minutes without a single person...

    I think the bit I have put in bold is absolutely correct. Many of the people in the senior trustee / director positions started as volunteers and then became directors - rather than the other way round. So I think that instills a passion for the...

    The Grosmont gossip is that the £450 project manager has walked off the job and said that the job is not possible, not sure if that means he can’t work in that kind of place or if he means the physical job can’t be done but I’m very worried for...

    I come back to this thread with an increasingly heavy heart having just enjoyed reading (something you can't say about the totally uninspiring Moorsline these days) the excellent monthly Bluebell Times, produced and edited by our very own Tom...

    The requirement upon ORR is to judge an application on its merits. It would therefore fall to WC to offer a convincing case that those factors and events you have cited would be managed out of recurrence. It should be noted that the suspension...

    yes - absolutely agree. having been involved in the original negotiations in the late noughties, i have been trying to get that moving (including on this forum, and with both railways) many many times. no real interest from anyone, tbh. so i...

    I hadn't realised it was dual braked! Definitely good to see the two railways working together, though. Let's hope it could pave the way for similiar collaborations in future. Russell on the Aberglaslyn trains, anyone? ;)

    Oooft, that minibus story especially does not read well! Honestly, NYMR's management need to see how the railway is viewed.

    That is where the two of our perspectives differ materially, in terms of where the emphasis lies between the regulator and organisations wishing to operate. While we both agree on the fundamentals of risk assessment, etc., there is then a...
