    ????? I think the pent-up demand that was referred to by a previous poster will be from holidaymakers staying in and around Whitby. I suspect the pent-up demand from those using the NYMR service as a commuter service could be estimated using...

    Its such a shame IMO. On the one hand I applaud them for trying Thomas again after all these years. Getting kids interested is what will determine the longer term fate of all of our railways. But to cut off your core market at any time just seems...

    If the work is complete?

    Not sure the comparison is like for like since at the moment the line can’t run to Whitby, so the comparison ought to be with the numbers and revenue they can earn with the current truncated set up, shouldn’t it?

    The East Lancs are holding a Thomas event this weekend. For one adult and two kids it is £49.68. On the NYMR it will be £70.95, both before any promo discount. On the ELR you get a 12 mile round trip to Ramsbottom with Thomas. On the NYMR you...

    The problem with @Lineisclear 's view was that he would frequently seem to create logical fallacies around governance. For example, he'd start from the view point that a charity "exists to deliver a public good" (which is true), then go on to...

    A few years ago now, @Lineisclear poste on another forum something along the lines of; 'What is the NYMR there for?' I responded 'To enable the volunteer to enjoy their hobby.' @Lineisclear effectively poured scorn on that and quoted the...

    All heritage railways exist because enough people wanted them to. They continue (or not) for the same reason. Talking about profit and loss sort of misses that point. It is of course essential to know what your means are and live within them, but...

    Some would argue that, legally, this is what the NYMR Trust already is, and that the Trust/PLC set up is designed to achieve precisely that outcome. We can see how well that is working... The issue, which we've seen mentioned with NYMR and...

    Have to correct you with the 'kids bringing mum & dad comment'! Most Harry Potter fans are in their 30's now, or even my age - the films were 20 years ago.. Daniel Radcliffe is 37 this year, my mate's wife is a massive fan and she's 42! But that...

    The photos aren’t that much better than the images in the 'Essential Maintenance Work' document from the Planning Application; good images, though. Noel

    I think you could, but I’m not sure “Thomas” would be the right thing to do it for. Railway Children has the great advantage that the play is damn good, and doesn’t need a railway setting - I saw it with the kids in Keswick’s Theatre on the Lake...
