Looking forwards to the New Year we are proposing a visit to Statfold Narrow Gauge Railway near Tamworth. www.statfoldbarnrailway.co.uk
Collection of narrow gauge locomotives, museum, and tram rides, with Sunday roast at the Waterfront PH at the ever popular Barton Marina to follow.
Meeting at the Barley Mow PH carpark Milford ST17 OUW the drive is a short run to Statfold of approximately 45 minutes and a further 30 minutes to Barton Marina.
PROPOSED date is Sunday March 29th which should coincide with the first Barton Marina Artisan market of the year. Something for everyone!
TIMES TO BE CONFIRMED.
Admission to Statfold is £7 or £10 if a guided tour is required including the newly completed workshops It would be useful to get your feelings on whether to book a tour or to wander freely view and take the train ride etc, probably around two hours either way.
Please reply by the New Year so that bookings can be confirmed.
More details later.
Happy Christmas to all!
Keith and Elaine.
APPOLOGIES - PLEASE NOTE DATE CHANGE TO SUNDAY 26th APRIL
It will be novel to have a run where the furthest point from our home is the start of the run… which will then probably pass fairly close to our house… ending up with lunch even closer to home
We would be interested in the guided tour, but would be equally happy just to wander around, should that be the majority view
Hi.
If we are not too late could you put our names down for the run. We don’t want to eat at The Waterfront though. Will be happy to just wander around the railway.
