Members' News
Membership
Message from Eric Miller (Hon. Secretary):
Several members have failed to renew their membership this year. This is regrettable, but possibly a sign
of the times, with household budgets being stretched. This is not only annual members, but club members who
are our mainstay. The nearer we are to completion, the more members will be required, and we must
be considering this at the present time.
We need a support team, some of whom may have to travel with the loco to other sites when the loco is on
hire. So, please, try to enrol members, encourage them to the website, and to view the loco on a working party day.
We started to try to have a membership of a hundred; we have never achieved it. So go to it and see what we
can do. Remember, the loco could be fully restored in three years time, we must pursue this now.
Travelling Expenses
Members who attend Working Party sessions at Quainton should read the information on claiming
travelling expenses,
as this is a way of raising funds for the Trust.
