Big "Thank you" to Chris from Nailsea who has co-ordinated questions and forwarded them to the team at GWR▸ (Great Western Railway) so they are aware ahead of time of the questions we will be "seeding" on Thursday.

We will be running the session as previously with questions and answers appearing on this "Meet the Manager" board every ten minutes with initial written answers, but additionally we will be live for live follow ups as well as follow ups online.  A big THANK YOU to GWR for offering us this opportunity ...


Graham Ellis is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Topic: "Meet the Manager" with Daryn McCombe of GWR

Will there be an upper limit to the number of members attending on Zoom after which the remainder can only follow the meeting session via the Coffee Shop?  I hope that the question makes sense! Huh

Yes, but the upper limit is several times even our most optimistic estimates.  Although this is the first time we have used Zoom for our "Meet the Manager", there will be several members who have looked after the online element of such meetings before.

There will be several of us there as "co-hosts" who are experienced at running Zoom sessions where such things very occasionally crop up. We have worked as a team before and dealt with such circumstances, and the duty to watch is clearly assigned.  If the session gets busy, please do flag up any such concerns to the host and THANK YOU, but please bear in mind that (s)he will be busy dealing with the rogue issue and may not come back to acknowledge until the issue has been dealt with.
