We are delighted that after a lot of hard work catching up on maintenance we are able to offer running days to the public again on the first Saturday of each month, as above, from 10.30am to 3.30pm, starting Sat 5th April.. We have also completed the build of our new ground level 5″ line around the site as a new attraction.
We run several events during the year that are open to the public to showcase some of our activities and to provide a good day out, especially for families.
We also run our portable track at some local fetes, for details see Events.
Happy Riders
MEMBERS PLEASE NOTE
The Club site at Westbury is open to members six days a week (Wednesday is a working party day). Gate codes have been advised in the Newsletter. The Clubhouse will be open for use on Friday mornings and winter Saturday running days.
The Clubhouse is now open from 9.30am on summer Saturdays until September except when we are running the portable track at local fetes.
Boiler testing: many members have been unable to have their steam boilers certificated recently due to the lockdown. If you wish to run an engine soon please please arrange a test in advance, there can be no guarantee of ad hoc testing being available at the last minute in the future.
