Don Valley

Dear Don Valley Railway Supporters,

We are holding our monthly Drop In Session on Thursday the 5th March at the Harlequin Pub.

We are looking for people who are interested in putting together a Woodhead Exhibition to publicise the route and its history. We are also working with Del Tilling, proprietor of Elsecar Railway, who wishes to create a permanent museum feature on the line.

If you are interested in volunteering for this project it would be partticularly good to see you at this meeting.

The Agenda at the meeting is as follows:

1, Minutes to AGM January 2014.
2, Matters Arising
3, Report of the Treasurer
4, Report of the Company Secretary
5, Election of Trustees to the charity and directors to Don Valley Railway Ltd
6, Open Discussion about progress made
7, Any other business
8, Date of next meeting (Next AGM planned for January 2016)

The Don Valley Railway Project’s aim during 2014 of funding and commissioning a detailed study showing how passenger trains to Stocksbridge will be introduced is the main issue for discussion at its forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

In addition, news that a petition to Sheffield City Council, endorsed by Stocksbridge Town Council, demonstrates the scale of support for the idea of bringing passenger services back to the line.
