    CORNWALL RAILWAY SOCIETY
Seasons Greetings from the Chairman.

The year 2020 is one we will not forget for a long time and it is to be hoped that 2021 will bring a change of much better circumstances for us all.
I would like to take this opportunity, on behalf of the Cornwall Railway Society Committee, to wish all of our members and friends a Merry Christmas and a Happy and peaceful New Year.
I look forward to seeing you again in September 2021 at our first indoor meeting at Redruth by which time our lives, hopefully, should have some semblance of normality.
Please take care and look after yourselves.
Best Wishes,
Dennis J. Flood.
Chairman
Cornwall Railway Society.
Many thanks to you Dennis for this Christmas Message, all the very best to you and Mrs. Flood marooned up in Newport. Best wishes for 2021. Thank you for your support in these troubled times.

Dear Keith, I don't know whether you saw my Teign Valley piece and bit of Class 143 video.

I've just added a ramble along the Moreton Branch.

Cheers, Colin

Dear Colin and all,
I found your items on both the Mortonhampstead and Teign Valley branches most interesting. Views of the branches, now and then are included also some are aerial views. I have no hesitation in recommending a click on the above link which will take our viewers to both your Moreton and by a further click the Teign Valley branches.
Happy Christmas at Christow   Best regards KJ.
