Title: Day out to Stroud (from Chippenham) and other places - 2023
Post by: grahame on June 12, 2023, 06:52:04
The Friends of Chippenham Station (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100066345772942) are promoting day trips this summer and have produced a series of leaflets including some destinations which are a little different to the usual "Honey Pots".   Copies on our document mirror as follows (and I have whitelisted them so guests can read them too)

Stroud is a lovely little Cotswold town - personally, I found it fascinating to visit and take a look at the Stroudwater Navigation / Thames and Severn Canal a while back, and I commend this day out to you.

My thanks to David from Chippenham (the editor and artist behind them) and Gail from FoCS for these leaflets and for their promotion work in Chippenham.  I met with David last week and over an excellent cup of coffee or two in the Rivo lounge we shared our community and Community Rail stories and looked forward in what continue to be changing and challenging times.  Delighted to be working with them on things like the Saturday Weymouth trains to ensure we each promote different Saturdays rather then ending up with a train that's well loaded from Swindon, full from Chippenham and a major problem at Melksham.
