Wailing Wall and 82045

There's a close working friendship between the Wailing Wall gang and the 82045 group, resulting in WW helping loads with the 82045 hut and pad alongside the WW workshop.

Yesterday's WW shift included Robin applying more undercoat to the 82045 shed, that is until the paint ran out.. more is on order.

The 82045 people will be on hand at the Station Gala on 16-17 June to answer questions and sell their smart fundraising goodies.

Their working party is usually a Monday, so if anyone fancies helping out or learning more, drop in to say hello.

All steamed up

Plans coming on nicely for our SVR150 Station Gala on 16-17 June, which is part of the 150th anniversary celebration of the opening of the Severn Valley line in 1862.
Lots of interest for all the family, and a great Fathers Day out.

Station Gala 16-17 June

It's getting closer.. the Bridgnorth Station Gala, this year held as part of SVR150 - the 150th anniversary of the opening of Severn Valley Railway to public services in 1862.

Attractions include

a vintage velocipede, for have-a-go rides by anyone interested (small donation to restoration funds invited)

see how much fun it can be!

and a 5inch scale miniature ride-on railway, courtesy of Wolverhampton & District Model Engineering Society

which will be laid out along the car park - the kids (of all ages) seemed to love this last time we had this fab group of chaps along

We also have a display of some fascinating little scale steam engines, hand-built by a volunteer's father..

They are quite hypnotic to watch and amazing to study - their creator is very happy to answer any questions about their operation and origins in full size use.

A GREAT DAY OUT for ALL THE FAMILY!
