The OP in his opening post said that he has now received an intention to prosecute letter, so I assume he needs advice as to how to reply. @Hadders gives useful advice if you look out one of his previous posts. In essence, you need to apologise for your mistake , and reassure them that you...

BYD stands for Build Your Dreams as far as I recall. They have now starting importing cars to the UK.

Or maybe in 5 years' time the trains will be 25 years old and therefore of little value. (ok, slight exageration)

And likewise, you may need to disclose any conviction to your university and future employers. As above, failure to disclose, and your employer/university/professional body finding out before you tell them, is often seen to be a worse offence than the original incident.

I personally would attend a second meeting and ask that minutes are kept and copied to you. If any issues are not resolved to your satisfaction, I would then send your concerns, together with the minutes, to your MP for escalation. Likewise, if you are given satisfactory guarantees at your...

The reverse would surely be true: Labour would want to leave as many bear-traps as possible, so would go for a 10 year lease.

She was indeed. (I was prompted by the answer to the previous question being 'Hilary'!) Please ascend the heights and set the next question.

Go-Coach had bought some Enviro 400s for a contract it had to provide some Amazon routes which did not last very long (the contract, not the buses!) Maybe they had surplus buses they could not pass on, so lent some to Hulleys?

Thank you - it was a complete guess! What was Junko Tabei's achievement in 1975?

I did specify manufacturing industries. I was thinking, for example, of British Leyland. It was sold to BMW, but whether it was for its product range, their intellectual property or their manufacturing capacity, who knows. Whilst JLR still exists, the lower end of the market served by Austin and...

Hilary?

If the original ticket was not valid, presumably it was 'unused' and therefore is it possible to claim a refund on it?

Whilst I do not disagree with anything you've said, I would question whether nationalising the company is the best solution. I'm struggling to think of a manufacturing industry which has been successfully run by the government. Would it be better to offer subsidies to the industry, either to...

Maybe it was a 'sell and lease-back' to generate cash for Hulleys?

Sounds like she was Mrs fforbes-Hamilton, of 'To the Manor Born' fame. In the programme, I think she 'owned' the station so could get the train to wait for her. :D

In May's edition of Buses magazine which arrived today, an article on the demise of Hulleys states that the buses were owned by Go-Coach, hence the quick transfer of many to Andrews.

Without wishing to detract from giving advice in this thread https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/help-til-is-charging-me-to-court.284274/page-3 , I thought I would set up a new thread. In essence, the passenger travelled with an Advance ticket on the wrong train (correct service, wrong time)...

Corporate leases are often linked to lengths of contracts won; how long was the original SWT contract? Five years for a high cost contract just seems far too short.

Surely the govt would want a longer, therefore cheaper lease, so that they can trumpet the success in nationalising the railways at a cheaper cost to the public purse?
