SEVERN VALLEY TRIP
Our annual summer outing to the Severn Valley Railway was very successful. We had great weather, and enjoyed thinking back a few years to our younger days when we travelled by steam train in the normal course of our lives. We divided into two parties at Bridgenorth, one party walking into the town, sampling the fenicular, visiting the town centre, hostelries and castle - the other staying at the railway site visiting the museum at the 'Engine Shed' and restaurant.
Here are samples of the comments made by some of our members:-
"Engine Shed fascinating. Great weather! A lovely day out."
"A really fantastic day - who organised the weather?"
"First trip, very much enjoyed and would do it again willingly."
"Lovely coach, lovely coach driver, lovely day."
"Enjoyed the day very much. Very well organised. Well done!"
"Good journeys by coach and train. Loved the cliff railway as well."
"A good trip to somewhere of interest. At 84 the memories come flooding back!"
"Excellent day out. Did not know Bridgenorth was so lovely."
"A wonderful nostalgic day - memories!"
"Lovely gardens at the castle, the hanging baskets were beautiful."
"Interesting leaning castle, and lovely scenery everywhere."
Our organiser, Ray Bickmore had the final word. "It's nice to know that it all went off without any major disasters. Weather perfect, and all the travellers appear to have enjoyed the day. They should sleep well tonight!"
