Backtracking around Millbay, Saltash and the Tamar - South Devon Railway

The next event in the popular series of Thursday evening meetings will be an illustrated talk by Bernard Mills. His latest book is called Backtracking around Millbay, Saltash and the Tamar, and was published very recently. Bernard will be showing a selection of photos from the book, and signed copies will be available to buy on the evening.

Bernard has been an accomplished and prolific recorder of the railways in the West Country for many years. His latest book draws on his huge photographic archive and knowledge of railways in Plymouth and surrounding area, and complements his earlier volume from 2014 drawn from the eastern side of the city. The evening is guaranteed to be a feast of local railway nostalgia.

The meeting takes place in Buckfastleigh Town Hall, and doors open at 7.00pm. The show itself starts at 7.30pm. There is plenty of parking in the Victoria Woodholme and Mardle Way car parks, both of which are free after 6.00pm. Light refreshments will be available, and there will be a prize draw.  Entry is free, so do come along for an entertaining and informative evening.
