After missing out last year due to the pandemic, we were lucky to have our annual Chairman's Day today! Big thanks to all our members who could be there, as well as to those who supported us from afar.

The tubes for Vintage Carriages Trust owned Sir Berkeley arrived last week and the task this weekend was to fit them all ready to be expanded to ensure that they won't leak which is the next task to do.

Yesterday we had our AGM! Matters were agreed upon, future plans were considered, and a new trustee was elected. The yearly 'Wallace and Gromit award' went collectively to our membership for all the support they have shown us in the covid-19 pandemic.

We had a successful Chairman's Day with our membership & guests over the weekend. It was good to see many familiar faces again, as well as new ones. We shared updates on some of our latest ventures and achievements, and of course enjoyed a lovely buffet lunch!

Yesterday, our locomotive Sir Berkeley was given a major boost when the weatherboard and tank were replaced. Last week, cab side panels and the chimney were replaced, so the engine is rapidly coming together! Well done to our friends at Middleton Railway for their hard work!

A huge thank you to Anthony Coulls for the fantastic dedication speech at the launch event over the weekend, and of course a massive thank you to this man - Roger Crombleholme - our little green locomotive would not be where it is today without him.
