If anyone could help by distributing this photo around town, or telling your friends and family, you'd be doing our small railway a massive favour for the future.

Only a handful of us down today tidying up ready to open again in March. New museum is well under way in an old 1940's railway carriage. Could do with a few extra pairs of hands in the week if anyone is about!

A few of us doing what we do best. Of course, it's not all about the track and trains!

GaryP.
That steam engine only arrived on Saturday,it belongs to one of the members and is his pride and joy.
Its going to be a big hit with the public this year I think, a great addition to EKR.

Yeah, um, I was referring to the track. Yes, that's it...

Sorry GaryP, when you said you had been on that, I thought you was refering to the steam engine that Josh was refering to in his post #31

Josh-are there future plans for the railway to extend to Eastry?

We are looking into feasible options for extensions, although nothing has been confirmed as yet. Eastry would be a good direction to head, although that would be along way in the future as finances allow. Money is incredibly tight as we just don't have enough visitors, which is why I have gone on a massive spree to try and advertise the railway
