A 30 volt voltage span from a 24 volt input.

No. Definitively you are not going to get it with a purely linear regulator. You do require switchmode regulators.

There are some of options:
1- Two regulators, a buck and an inverting regulator fed each from +24 volt. No transformers, only two inductors.
2- A pushpull converter. This would be my preferred for higher power, but you require an output transformer with both primary and secondary center taps and two inductors.
3- Because the output power is low, a flyback converter would also work, but you still require a transformer with two secondaries. But no inductors.

HB9EVI:
As we all see, there isn't yet much skill, already in the way the question is asked; I don't see much sense in proposing to build switching mode regulators; more meaningful would be to get small a center tapped 18V 10VA transformer and work with the 7815/7915 or LM317/337 if variable voltage is needed.

Lee Leduc:
Unless you're set on designing and building your own, the easy solution is to buy a DC/DC converter. Take a look at a DC/DC converter like the Murata NDS6D2415C. 24VDC in, +/-15VDC at 200ma out.

There is such a thing as capacitive voltage multiplier, invented long time before all this IC stuff. It would be quite feasible for such a low current.

However, save yourself a world of complications and start with a centre-tapped transformer of at least 18V per side. Again, at such a low current it will be small and cheap. Follow that with ANY linear regulator, IC or discrete and that's it.

To power what?

It's quite likely you could re-configure the circuit to use a single 24V power supply, if you told us what the circuit is.
