I’m writing this as my burn is overflowing its bank and flowing nicely over the lawn. Up here in the north-east of Scotland, the sun has only been out on a handful of occasions since the 2 June and a temperature in the 60s is good. At least I found some sun and warmth on my trip down south. Hopefully no members have suffered badly in the recent floods, which has also caused much rail disruption particularly throughout the Yorkshire area. Let’s hope that July turns out like last year. Please note that the HB Publications page is now included as an insert. This has freed up space for more feature articles, so hopefully the popular features will become more regular (all regular features are in this month, due to Stock Changes being absent.). This includes Preservation Report, so again can I ask that members visiting preserved sites to contribute and if possible provide an accompanying high- resolution photo. Magazine: Any information / article on any railway related item will always be most welcome for inclusion in part or as a whole in the magazine. Your travel stories / anecdotes about far flung parts of the railway network, past or present can give pleasure to others or inform of places to visit. This railway hobby of ours is made all that more enjoyable by the sharing of information, so please consider sharing your knowledge and experiences. Please note that contributions for Out and About Sightings only should be sent to James Holloway, items for European News (and Sightings) to Robert Brown and for Wagon Corner and Light Rail & Metro News to Martin Hall. All other items should be sent to Trevor Roots / Peter Britcliffe. (All addresses are on Page 2) Neatly typed submissions are perfectly acceptable, but if you have a PC with Microsoft Word or Excel, then a document on CD is a bonus or better still e-mail them to the appropriate official. Good quality photographs are always welcome for inclusion in the magazine – colour or black and white clear prints of any railway subject will be considered but preferably digital photographs via e-mail. To credit members correctly please include your name with any submissions. Some items may be placed on our excellent website if we have insufficient space in the magazine, The latest date for articles / info for the next magazine is Thursday 26th July 2007. Items for Out and About Sightings should be sent in to James a few days earlier if possible please. Membership Matters: Membership Rates: Annual: £15.00 Five Year Rate: £70.00 (discounted during 2007) New Members: The following new members have joined this month: James Cannell, Peter Lukey, Graeme Macdiarmid, Thomas Nichols, Bert Perks, Darren Reay, Michael Spechp, David Webber, David Wheelwright, Lee – James Worsfold - A warm welcome to you all. Contributors: Thanks to John Palin, Kenneth Pryce, Paul Bright, Alan Gilmour, Malcolm Wallace, Mark Wallace, Mike Rumens, Derek Sneddon, Paul Tarrant, Nigel Hoskins, Gordon Wharrie, Michael Hillier, Mike Pinder, Steve Jenner & Trevor Roots. We are sorry if anyone has been missed. We now post some contributions direct to our Web Site. All photos by Trevor Roots unless shown otherwise.
