A Brief History

Hello and welcome to all. The society was formed in 1977 and over the the years our talks have reflected a wide range of interest from local history to around the World from the railway's beginnings to modern times. Particular attention has been paid to local railways on which the Group has several books most of which are currently out of print.

However, we have recently (2022) had a new book beautifully published by Lightmoor Press although stocks of that are running low. See picture below.
