    Leaving aside the technical details, my hunch is you might end up in the situation where on days when there is demand for such a service, there is no capacity; and on days where there is capacity, there is no demand! Tom

    We did have it down as 4472 for a while on the working timetable as a joke placeholder number, it was tempting to release it like that! :)

    Which is why I think any economic argument would come around serving high season leisure traffic, rather than commuting. You are then talking a couple of services a day on high days and holidays rather than regular services throughout the year....

    Understood, and largely agreed. Method 1 is, realistically, the only way this might happen. The questions are real and serious, but are capable of being dealt with intelligently by reasonable people. I'd be interested to know what the material...

    I also think a few things need to be set out here. I don't believe anybody here has said it outright cannot happen. Like any proposal, the overall idea likely can be achieved. In fact, there is a scenario of mainline TOC operating a service...

    That’s why I highlighted the material interest the S&D Trust had in the continuation of the SVR, something it then shared with the WSRA . To describe the WSRA as a general railway support charity is stretching its charitable purposes to include...

    Well I hope it's not an industrial loco, but it's diagrammed for the 7 coach and 6 coach sets, so likely to be something bigger.

    Yes, but I'd suggest that any railway that had got itself to such an existential cash crisis that the only urgent thing was as you suggest would be unlikely to get very far with an appeal - at least unless it could convince those donating that...
