On Saturday 18th October the Bodmin & Wenford Railway held its Branch Line Gala consisting of 6435 with its Auto Coach and the 2 Car DMU in the early 1960s Green Livery.
Members of the CRS were involved in the running of this Gala, with Dave Letcher in the Signal Box, Shaun, Ella and Ben Harding working as train crew and Maurice Dart signing his new books one of which is Images of Bodmin Road to Padstow & Launceston Railways, a must for those interested in that area, and a good Christmas Present.
