    Thanks for that I'll have to run my eye over it

    The answer iirc is ‘yes’. The Advanced Steam Traction Trust looked at this as part of the design study for Clan Hengist, prompted by the uneven cylinder wear experienced on DoG where the inside cylinder had significant less wear than the outside...

    The other big difference between heritage railways is the physical distribution of potential customers, and their amount of disposable income for entertainment and leisure. Compared to the Bluebell for example, the NYMR is in a pretty rural area...

    Continuing the thought…. Nobody visits NE Hants except for Jane Austen’s house and the Watercressline. (I exaggerate very slightly to make the point) …. Yes there is a local population, but they need to be given reasons to visit, and any visitors...

    They will. But the question remains as to how their performance compares with other attractions in the same area.

    The answer to the question lies in understanding where the fair value line lies…. ignore that this illustration says farmers…. The key things to understand are: 1. How do customers rate you on price (low to high) 2. How do customers rate you on...

    The trouble with what might seem a trivial calculation is that the number of potential customers is hard to estimate, and the number of those who will actually buy tickets depends on the price in a way that you can only guess until you have a few...

    I think there are two issues. One is the interaction between price and quantity, where it’s clear that the current advertised prices are reducing attendance without generating enough extra income. The other is the cost base. My totally...

    Tickets were relatively expensive back then compared with income, but successful bands made their money through record sales, not touring. Spotify etc destroyed the record selling market and thus successful bands raised ticket prices...

    I’m not sure that even “spectacular” will justify those costs - that piece refers to massive discounts for packages at Beyoncé concerts. And, with the best will in the world, NYMR is no Beyoncé.

    An interesting piece in today’s Sunday Times about the pricing of concerts, the costs of promoting the, the role of Live Nation in setting them. It finishes with the following quote from one of the interviewees: “Do you want a thriving music...

    I would doubt if WCRC are any more difficult to deal with than at least five of my regular suppliers I dealt with. Strangely enough an incident in the week made me think about one of them who was our landing gear overhauler based next to the GWML...
