Gwili Steam Railway to hold virtual gala this weekend

The Gwili Steam Railway is to hold a virtual gala this coming weekend (20th/21st June 2020) to help raise money whilst the railway is closed.

Like all other railways in the UK, the coronavirus pandemic has meant extended closures, and with railways being closed, it means no income from passenger tickets.

Over the course of the weekend, the Gwili Steam Railway will be posting a number of video clips on the railway’s Facebook page (available to view by clicking here).

With such a wide variety of videos being posted, from footplate rides and locomotive light-ups, to messages from the Chairman and behind the scenes clips. A full timetable of videos for each day can be found by clicking here.

To help raise money for the Gwili Steam Railway, they have produced a 64-page event programme detailing everything that will be taking place over the weekend. The guide is available for £5 and is available from their site by clicking here.

With no passenger income, the Gwili Steam Railway urgently need your help. Please help where possible.
