Group picture before the walk. I would love to have joined except (those of you who look at the calendar) will realise I have a 14:00 in Bristol too!)

Do you have any leaflets promoting the walks.
Down here there is a guide of timetable size, with walks from stations, dozen or so walks in the Cornwall and Devon edition. It contains maps, sights, description for the walk.
Maybe a useful leaflet, promote local walks past landmarks/establishments, get the ramblers in on their own times.
I know of a couple people who go off for the walks because of the leaflets, and that's just in my network

This walk's part of a significant program that's only come to the rail on the periphery ... and very late to my attention. There are walks in the planning (have been for a few weeks) on 23rd July and 10th August between Melksham and Trowbridge.

And - yes - there's prospects of leaflets (woof and yap love walking) but for some reason most of the organised walks don't allow them. So we know the walks ourselves.
