Title: Not Local - But still... Post by: Jim on February 20, 2008, 08:31:55 Went on the Medway Valley Line yesterday, for a nice little day out. The PAddock Wood end of the line is quite recomended for a little jolly out.
Here's the snaps - which include lots of station shots. http://jimsphotoallery.fotopic.net/c1462020.html Title: Re: Not Local - But still...

CANBER is quite interested in this line, as the SRA proposed the closure of Beltring station. However, the DfT have since informed me that this will not be taken forward for now.

Title: Re: Not Local - But still... Post by: grahame on February 21, 2008, 04:39:37 That would have been good,m based on Jim's comment, wouldn't it? But not quite the correct station. Here's Canning Town:

Post by: BRADNOCK on February 21, 2008, 09:37:32 Well done Jim I think your contributions and the other members who post topics not related to FGW directly are of great interest to the members of the forum that share a general interest in the rail way world , I for one who have always been connected to the railways in one way or another have found the forum a very good source of information and have discovered many things that have always intrigued me for
years and that the suggestion by Grahame that an addition travel section is a very good one because of the vast source of information shown in the forum generally could not fail to make it a success.

We're glad you like it, BRADNOCK ;D I agree with what you are saying, its the contributions of members (on whatever topic) that make the forum what it is.
