I wonder how this happened? I suspect the control freaks on the Board of Management of the Tramway Museum Society.
From what I can tell there wasn't enough space to publish all the additional information - something which an ex Editor should be well aware of.
ReplyDeleteIn the wonderful world of commerce nothing comes for free so why should you be allowed to promote your "unofficial" site for nothing? Admittedly there is a fantastic coverage of the Wakebridge upgrade amongst other things but this could so easily have been added to the official site, with cooperation, rather than the few articles that have appeared.
Control freaks? Rather slanderous methinks! At least you have deigned to recognise that the Board of Management does exist - remember they were voted in by the membership and have a responsibility to ensure that the Society functions properly.
