    When I created the first 762 Club website in 2010 or thereabouts (hand-coded in native HTML - a true labour of love - and good to see much of my content is still in use!), I remember they were very keen not to use the word "Shares" IIRC, I think people bought "Memberships" for £762, since reduced to £750 once LYN was completed and the M-Ws were started. As well as managing the first two, I believe there are already some parts in store for 3 & 4! Manning Wardle & Co. is currently listed as a dormant company (since 2019), with Jon Pain and Charles Summers as current Directors. The historic company was 'Manning, Wardle & Co. Ltd.' - the comma is probably quite significant! As I understand it, the new company doesn't have rights to the former company's designs or intellectual property, as these are now owned by Hunslet.
