    Station updates

    Kidderminster
    Kidderminster Railway Museum should be open with their excellent cafe and book sale .
    From David at the Museum - Our opening times are 9.30am to 10pm Friday and Saturday, and 9.30am to 7pm on Sunday. The cafe will be open during those times as well. I have added chilli back onto the menu for this Gala

    also Saturday evening
    KRM on Saturday 15th April. It coincides with the Steam Gala so there will be a lot going on that day. Keith Bullock has arranged to come and show some more of his 16mm films for the evening, covering all sorts of transport from rail to bus to boat, so there should be something to interest everyone, especially if you are into nostalgia and reminding yourself of when you were younger! Keith, as you no doubt remember, used to work for the British Transport Film Unit, and many of his films were produced by that organisation. As usual, the show will start at 7.30pm and go on to about 10.15pm.
