I am taking a lot of information in this week, and at my age takes ‘some time’ to register!
Thinking more about the Community Rail Partnership meeting on Wednesday which I attended.
I am now ‘thinking’ (too much is no good for you), why all of a sudden are ‘Abellio – Greater Anglia’ wanting to ‘engage’ more with public, customers and friends…..is it because the rail franchises are up for grabs in the next few months. After Years and Years of ‘inactively’ they now want to ‘listen too’ their customers, they want to carry out community events, they want to build and pay for some small enhancements. Me cynical – never….
Of course there is a world of difference between Whittlesey and say March Railway Stations. March is a nice I believe Edwardian Railway Station, has a fantastic group
Friends of March Railway, who have worked together for many years to make improvements and enhancements (Volunteers)….have some extremely good sponsorship.
Whittlesey – 2 concrete platforms, my friend Andrew O – has been waiting over 3 years for another friend to join him (that’s makes 2 by the way) in trying to form a Friends of Whittlesey Railway group.
