New-look I & WEMRC web site goes live!

The club is pleased to announce the launch of the new web site, at www.iwemrc.org.uk, which we hope will make it easier for would-be members and enthusiasts in general to find and contact us.

Many thanks on behalf of the club to Jonathan Casey for his work on the original club website, which got us started in the right direction, as well as his important and continuing work in getting the club's library organised and computerised.

Thomas Junior loco in steam
At our August Steam/Open Day, the Live Steam section were able to get Dave Prior's 'Thomas Junior' loco running, albeit not actually pulling passengers.

A little work is needed, but it was good to see it running after many years in the engine shed.

Coming up...
