During closed season our crew still play with trains!! This weekend some of us took a trip to the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway to see how they do things! What a great weekend it was, with our President, Ron, having a footplate ride from Dungeness back to New Romney! Thank you to Alan at the RHDR for taking care of us all today and giving us a tour behind the scenes! And Nick for booking the bar car for us! If you’re ever in Kent the biggest little railway is always worth the visit!! Thank you for hosting us!! 🚂
Looks like a good time had by all
Good too see you guys getting out. Glad you had a fab weekend, did you stop at Romney sands? The RH&DR is fantastic and always worth a visit. Im so jealous of Ron! 🙂
