Despite expressing an interest I never heard anything back.  Has it been stiilborn?

Goodness knows ... I'll see what I can find.

Probably because they want certain 'type' of rail-interest people there. Hence no application form/price attached. Guess you aren't who they want there?

Possibly but you’d like to think they’d say so or ask for more details of my interest/role(s).

If the event is still on, they do themselves little credit by not even replying to enquiries. They could find they get less than complimentary comments about being off hand on various forums.
