This is the original forum of the Bristol Railway Archive that existed between 2003 and 2013. I finally rescued it after it seemed unrecoverable after a large crash. I have made it available for viewing. It is locked, all posts to the new version please!
Use this forum to talk about the railways in and around Bristol, or for any off-topic stuff you want to share. Also request photos and information that you are missing.
My initial reaction to this has already been summed up in the comments section on that story
Tim M on comments page wrote: Bit of a non-story again. Someone who doesn't really matter much politicially at the moment spouts some completely unhelpful ideas that have zero chance of being implemented, because they have nothing to do with the schemes that have actually been proposed and been whitelisted. All that sprinkled with a lot of "ifs".
