In addition there is the Tuesday gang, meeting as it says on the box, every Tuesday. Work on the Carriage Shed is almost continuous, every weekend, Tuesdays and Thursdays and some Fridays, depending on local circumstances and weather conditions. All help on the latter would be much appreciated, but it would be very helpful in planning if we know you are coming - it could make all the difference between somebody else turning up on site or not!

There is a lot to be done over the winter – essential track maintenance (probably concentrated on the mid-month weekends), work to finish off and fit out the Carriage Shed, prepare the Museum for next summer’s opening and start the re-modelling of Maespoeth yard are amongst some of the jobs needing doing. As ever, it would be helpful if volunteers let us know in advance of their planned attendance. If you don’t you might find nobody on site and all the doors locked!

Notification either to Richard Greenhough (on 0778 733 2883 or richardg@corris.co.uk) or David Coleman (on 01654 761624 or davidc@corris.co.uk), please.

Thank you.
