Don't forget that this Sunday is another chance to visit the signal box!! The usual activities of talks, tours and demonstrations will be taking place. Cowley Bridge miniature signal box will be running and the Buffer stop cafe will be selling tea, cakes and light refreshments.

The heritage weekend


 Over the two days of the heritage weekend we had 181 visitors, a record for Heritage Open Days.  Having had an average day Saturday with 62 visitors, Sunday we had 119 visitors, just 7 short of our single day record set last year during the Romsey Festival. We also had a couple of new memberships.

 

We'd like to thank everyone who came and who donated generously. The buffer stop café was a great success and we actually sold out of cake on the second day (you greedy lot).


To those who didn't come, you missed out on a great weekend and the chance to get in for free.


Next open day will be the first Sunday in October (Sunday 4th) with a £2.50 entrance charge (£3 if you'd like to gift aid it) children are free.
