Upcoming Events
On Wednesday 13th November, Colin Hall will bring us up-to-date with the trials and tribulations of the LMS Patriot Project. The group is building a new steam locomotive representing a lost class as a national memorial engine to renew a remembrance link, established on Britain's railways after the Great War, to those who lost their lives in the conflict. The locomotive, now partially complete, is to be named The Unknown Warrior.
Long-standing member David Brace will host the Society's 50th Anniversary Photo Night on Wednesday 27th November. Members' pictures of people and places associated with the Society over the last 50 years will, no doubt, amuse and entertain us, bringing back many memories.
Our meetings are at 7.45pm at The Wote Street Club in New Road in Basingstoke town centre, RG21 7NG, which has a licenced bar and usually conclude by 10.00pm. Do join us for these meeting, either by becoming a Society member or as a visitor (at a cost of just £5). Membership details are on our website at www.bdrs70d.com or call the Secretary on 07837 320790.
