Looking For Lost Members


While the regular Civil Engineering Department continued to cultivate what now looks like an allotment, a search team drove from Essex, to clear some long vegetation a bit further along the line, in hope of finding the members that disappeared some months ago, never to be seen again since.




There will be clearing again on Wednesday 24th November, but not on Sunday 28th November, due to other commitments by the Civil Engineering Department that attend weekly.

Moving Bed & Treasure Hunt

On Wednesday 17th November, one member of the Civil Engineers Department had been told by his wife, that: "Seeing as you are now spending so much time down the track, you may as well take your bed down there!" so he did and quite literally. Here he is carrying his mattress, but not saying where exactly he will be sleeping on it, or come to that, which team member it is. He has requested anonymity, so we respected his wishes, by not photographing his face.


 Last week, some unusual finds were made down the track, so we invited others to join us, yet still awaiting some response, so while one member was working On the level (photo 2), some of the Bramley Line's own Time Team (photo 3), were searching for more hidden treasures, including those members who haven't been seen for some considerable time, and so wondered where they are hiding, as the remainder are getting a new track bed cleared, (photo 4,) by 'rooting out' the brambles that are in the way.

Clean up at Waldersea

On Wednesday the Civil Engineering Dept were out at Waldersea cleaning up after the successful bonfire night on Nov 5Th 2010



As we were cleaning we came across new vegetation of the brambles, which for the time of the year, is most unusual. This is one of many unusual finds along the line when clearing takes place. How about coming along and not only help clear the mass of vegetation, but see if You can find something unusual?




Everything looks great down at Waldersea





There will be NO work carried out on Sunday 14th November as its Remembrance Day
In respect our comrades in the Two World Wars & to the Railway Personel who gave there lives for there country

Guy Fawkes Visits the Bramley Line

Remember, remember the 5th of November. Members, family and friends gathered at Waldersea for our Bonfire & Fireworks night. After a clear day, and building the bonfire up, the heavens opened and at 1915, the Bonfire was lit.

With the Bonfire lit and well alight, the assembled crowd gathered in the Shelter of the Bramley Line Gazebo and Simon and Derek went and arranged the fireworks.

The fireworks lasted 45 minutes and everyone who attened enjoyed the evening. Thanks to all members who helped get it ready, and everyone who attended. An Excellent night had by all.
