Low Life Attack The Bramley Line Again

When Bramley Line volunteers turned up at Waldersea today (Wednesday) they discovered the theft of around 30 chairs and some fishplates from the track between Waldersea and Coldham. An inspection of the track between Waldersea and the A47 found a further 300 chairs and more fishplates missing. British Transport Police were informed. Although the rails were left behind this effectively severs the line in two places.

It is too early for the Bramley Line to make a statement but Trust members will be discussing the implications for the restoration of the line at the Annual General Meeting on 26 March.

If anyone has any knowledge of the thefts they should contact British Transport Police.
 
 
Photos To Follow

Civil Engineering Dept (Tangerine Team)

Waldersea Yard

Due to bad weather on Saturday 19th February, the 'Tangerine Team' of the Civil Engineers Department, were again in action at Waldersea, on Sunday 20th, and discovered a few sleepers covered by brambles. These were then retrieved ready for a siding that is planned for Waldersea. The name 'Tangerine Team' came from an idea suggested by one of the Essex members while taking a photo.

 In a matter of some 5 hours, there sure was some difference in the clean-up that took place, with plenty of banter between us, and we all enjoyed the work. It would be nice to see more members helping, rather than waiting until the work is done, then coming along to enjoy the fruits of our labour, as the saying goes.

There are currently three ways to get in touch, if you Would like to join in and they are the mobile phoe number, E-mail address, or better still, come along on a working day when we are there.

WORK COMMENCING

At Waldersea today, the minimum amount of members were determined to make some impact on the Real Bramley Line website, and Not that of the 'Friends' one that claims to be interested, yet No commitment whatsoever in to getting it reopened, other than some wierd dreams, as well as the number of Supposed visitors to their website.

The 'Friends' of the line, have yet to even obtain a License to access the track, let alone start clearing the vegetation

Picture 1 shows 2 of the members at the start of the days work, followed by 3 more showing the progress as they, as well as the photographer, went along, including one where two of the team were way ahead of the member taking the photographs, as he also cut down the vegetation between the running rails, then as far as they cut down, before finishing for the day, some hours later.
