West Somerset Railway Questionnaires

[SwissFan91]

Hello everyone. Now, I am studying the WSR for my dissertation, and I was wondering if there is anyone on here that has been on this heritage railway in the last 5 or 10 years or so? Would be a great help.

Went on about 6 years ago when I lived down in Taunton, and about another 6 years before that, when on holiday in Exmoor. I'd be happy to help.

PM for email address if that's the way you're doing it

I went on it about 10 years ago but I can't remember that much but I might be able to help...

I'll be able to help, I was there as recently as last year.

Send me a PM for details

Thanks everyone. My dissertation is on the regional economic impacts that the railway is having on the area, particularly on Minehead. I'm going to hand out questionnaires to the customers to see where they spend money, where they stay, how long for, etc. Opening this up to everyone, are there any other questions you think I should ask that could help me answer my research question?

Thanks.

Surely how the customers get to the railway would be a good question as by comparing it with other heritage routes which have a network rail connection you could see if connecting the line to Taunton would have a greater effect on the economy in Minehead than it does now.

Erm... couple of months ago. May perhaps?
