Summer Visit 2011
The Swindon & Cricklade Heritage Railway visit 2011.
A visit to the Swindon and Cricklade Heritage Railway on 2nd July 2011 was organised by Margaret Fay. John Watts drove the mini-bus there and back. SWIAS members spent a very busy and pleasurable day looking around here. They had a chance to view the progress on a grand project to recreate a Victorian train using rescued and renovated coaches. They also learnt about progress in the plans to recreate a Victorian steam locomotive to pull the coaches. There were also many additional interests at the site including a WW2 museum. A full description of the day appeared in the Society's members' publication "SEARCH".
