Castle Posted June 12, 2022 Author Share Posted June 12, 2022 Hi Dave, Sure thing - great to have you aboard! If you get there for 10:00 - 10:30hrs. Make sure you are fed and watered and taken your train rides then the afternoon is ours. We will do our usual and meet up at the gate at 12:00hrs and trundle round at our own pace! All the best, Castle 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Mike_Walker Posted July 26, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 26, 2022 It would be useful to have an idea of total numbers so we know what to expect on Swindon Panel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Davexoc Posted July 26, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 26, 2022 Looks like 2999 and D9516 are rostered to be working on the Sunday, whereas the Saturday has 4079 and 1340, which would have been preferable IMO.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps we could persuade “the powers that be” to keep 4079 in light steam as well….. When I saw 2999 at the SVR last week, I thought her paintwork had taken a bit of a bashing…. Boiler and smoke box were very scorched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castle Posted July 30, 2022 Author Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) Hi All, No worries Nick! Always cool to have some assistants for the tour!

Clearwater Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 I've negligently failed to renew my GWS membership. Does anyone know if it's possible to renew my membership at the entrance gate? David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best, Castle Hi Castle I shall do my best to be there but a looming deadline made more frantic by dealing with a suffering friend is threatening to scupper my weekend so it may, regretably, be 28.

If you do that you will get a confirmation email that they will accept at the gate, since you probably won't receive the new membership card in time. Failing that you should be able to renew at the centre when you arrive. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
