Visit to Tywyn in April & WTRE17
WTRE (Where the Rainbow Ends), the house magazine of the ALRS, edition no.17 is currently with the printers and will be posted to members shortly It will contain a booking form for the Members’ Day visit.
There have been several discussions at committee meetings about holding another ALRS trip out after the enjoyable day we all had at Leighton Buzzard in April 2008. (see the gallery section for photos of that day)
We have negotiated with the Talyllyn Railway to charter a train for ALRS members in April 2011; the 60th year of railway preservation per se, as for those who didn’t know, it all started there.
The confirmed date is Saturday 16th April.
The plan is for members to arrive at in time to look around the Narrow Gauge Railway Museum based in Tywyn as well as time to explore the engineering headquarters at Pendre. Then a full trip up and down this lovely line.
We are in discussions to see if we can have a little surprise or two in store for participants who choose to join us.
