Small Prairie liked H Cloutt's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
I took the comment as a quote from a question asked by a member at the AGM where they didn't listen to the answer.

Sorry but it tells me that some members have made their minds up and will not listen to the trustees - I realise that some may be frustrated but that is no reason to shout at the trustees.

By 'Eck, it were a tad on the warm side atop the hill yesterday! So much so, that as the day got hotter, the work rate slowed down and the drinks breaks increased as there's no escape from the sun. Still, that didn't stop the six hardy souls...

As has been mentioned before, in theory at least - once we extend south of KL - then the KL station site has to be abandoned and returned to its previous owner and condition. Now, it may well be that that the ENPA does decide to allow us to keep...

Streaming would be an excellent idea. So would expanding the meeting to allow both formal business and wider discussion of the Trust, CIC and their plans. That the time allowed for the meeting is so short, and the conduct from the top table so...

Also the Scots had been recently "rebuilt" with largely new major components, so would not have been due for replacement for a fair while. If the Clans had a potential role it was as replacements for elderly Class 6 locos but with wide fireboxes...

Thanks for your insight. In a way it is a pity that the meeting can't be streamed so that we can observe what happens first hand. Maybe streaming the meeting might have a positive effect on the conduct of the meeting. I am a member of another...

With all due respect, has it occurred to you and the original poster that the question that was asked at the meeting, and i was there, was from a new member who hasn't got the background information on the original planning and subsequent S73...

I attended with my son on Saturday and managed to get away before the class 50 earthing fault occurred. Got there early enough to walk from Norden to Corfe to pick up the 33 back to Norden for a quick jaunt back up to Norden before the day in...

Yesterday, I made my first visit to the line for the 'Leander Farewell' event. It was also the first time I'd seen 45690, a loco I've been wanting to see for a long time. I wasn't so bothered about 2999 but was pleasantly surprised by it - what a...
