Sponsors Day

Over the years ESME has received a lot of help both financially & in kind without which we would not have made anything like the progress we have.

Having reached two significant milestones of completing the first loop upon which we can run trains again and funding for the Heritage Centre & Museum, it was felt this would be an appropriate time to invite sponsors along to see the progress and to hear how we intend to develop the centre over the next few years.  Not everyone was able to join us for the event, but for those that did they expressed very favourable comments.

The welcome by Ms Moira Niven MBE, Lord-Lieutenant and the thanks from ESME Chair, Mark, were given, the group went on a guided tour of the site and a ride on the trains.  Fortunately, the weather remained dry until just before refreshments were served when the heavens opened!  However, it did little to dampen the enthusiasm of our guests who, once suitably refreshed ventured back out onto the trains.

Thanks go to the team that provided the excellent spread, Moira, Jan & Lizette.
