Title: New Years Honours - 2017 Post by: Chris from Nailsea on December 31, 2016, 01:29:24 Having perused this New Years Honours List, I note that Mrs Vivien Cooper, a volunteer for the Great Western Society at Didcot Railway Centre, has been awarded an OBE 'for services to railway heritage'.
Congratulations, Mrs Cooper, OBE! ;) Title: Re: New Years Honours - 2017 Post by: didcotdean on January 05, 2017, 10:47:07 Article from The Didcot Herald about Viv Cooper (http://www.heraldseries.co.uk/news/hsdidcotnews/14999922.WHAT_AN_HONOUR__Volunteer_celebrates_golden_era_with_railway_centre_and_special_medal/). Apparently it was a BEM rather than an OBE.
