Maybe to interest to any of our west cornwall contingent.

There is a talk at Falmouth Poly 7th February from 1945 to 2100 on the subject of Railways of West Cornwall before Dr Beeching.

Thanks, Richwarwicker. I'd have liked to hear that but sadly won't be able to.

Thank you for this - I have taken the liberty of adding it to our calendar.

I did a double take when I first read the name of the speaker - thought it was David St John Thomas (of publisher David & Charles) - but who sadly died in 2014.  He was a champion of his subject.
