telegraph!
Just arrived is the latest edition of the superb S&D Telegraph from the Trust at Midsomer Norton. This gets better with every issue, the wrap around front cover is brilliant and makes me want to throttle Julian next time I see him! I'm even starting to get into the historical operations material!
This reminds me that the New S&D need an EDITOR for its magazine, Right Lines. Please email if you'd like to take this role on. You'll get loads of financial and physical support (articles, pics etc) and you'll be playing a valuable role in promoting the S&D.

Would be interesting to know what exactly are the future plans for Midsomer Norton.
There's a fair amount of forward plans covered in the current (and previous) Telegraphs. I think they are going to revise their ten year planning document soon as some of the dates haven't been reached, but they are pretty much committed to returning to Chilcompton in the medium term and of course Radstock in the longer term, with a network connection to Frome.
Hopefully by then there are clear developments on the Bath to Radstock section under the New S&D.
Most of the development work at the station is now complete - in the short/medium term there is a plan to build a couple of sidings just south of the station with some covered accomodation, but the station area itself is just about finished apart from a few minor touches - and hopefully replacement of the toilet extension on the station building with something more authentic.
But just look what they've achieved over the last few years with a fairly small team of hardcore volunteers!
