« on: October 23, 2011, 09:45:27 »

Yesterday, the West Wilts Rail User Group organised a guided walk from Bradford-on-Avon to Trowbridge, and we learned a great deal about the history of the railway, its stations, and the wider area of the towns and countryside from Rob Brown. See http://wellho.info/3493

On 22nd November, the regular West Wilts Rail Users group meeting takes place at Bridge House, Trowbridge (by the station); coffees from 7 p.m., and a service update from Phil Dominey of South West Trains from 7:30 p.m. All welcome. For more details of wwrug see http://www.wwrug.org.uk

I'm a member of the group, and get along to meetings as and when I can. I've registered an internet domain for them and it's currently pointed at this page ... I'll follow up with events as they come up, and be happy to tell you about email addresses, other web sites, a Facebook presence, etc, as the committee plans forward. Other members (and non-members) are welcome to chip in here, of course!
