Progress Chistmas Eve 24th December 2011

Dear all
 
Our Santa Train season was brought to end today with another most well received visit to the North Pole. Everyone involved should take a bow as all the planning, present gathering and on train staffing has seen the best financial result in our short history.
 
At Wirksworth there has been a little other activity by the 8F Group and dmu car W51073 has had some serious work towards its restoration.
 
I would ask those of you who live near any part of our Railway to try and take a look over the next few days to ensure that any unwelcome visitors are detected. Over our nine miles we are quite vulnerable in these peculiar times but between us we can provide a deterrent.
 
I wish everyone a most pleasant Christmas and time to recharge the batteries for renewed effort next week.
 
Martin
