Friday 25th April at Bracknell Railway Club’s Pinewood HQ – 2:30pm to 5pm.
Bracknell Railway Society presents Colin Bird of the Bracknell Forest Society with his talk on The Railways of Bracknell Forest and how they changed the Borough – Part 1: Before WW1.
Entertainments Secretary Bill Canning writes: Hopefully nobody will notice the extra chocolate induced pounds so round the week off by getting some knowledge about the railway situation in our home town, even I remember when there was a plethora of sidings and a goods shed and yard.
There was a memorable incident when the Scammel Scarab driver who was, lets say, vertically challenged braked hard and some steel girders shot through his windscreen narrowly missing him.
On Friday, Colin Bird should start proceedings at 14:30 and finish about 17:00 you should find parking a lot easier as well in the afternoon.
