Colne Valley Railway News

After a lot of hard work by a small team of Colne Valley Volunteers, the model railway shed has been officially opened by Mrs Radford, daughter of the late Mr Tierney. There are still tasks to be finished - the boards surrounding the model need to be painted and not all the wiring is finished, but there are now 5 working circuits on the layout. Displays of railways items are also being installed in the shed.

Brooks Newmark, the MP for Braintree visited the Railway this afternoon. He spent time learning the history of the Railway and listening to our plans for the future. http://yfrog.com/ehg9lqj
