The Meeting on Thursday February 28th

8th February 2019

This month’s Members Meeting was later than usual because it’s Panto season in the Village. We were delighted to be welcoming Mike Dixon back to Addingham. It was 2 years ago that he filled the Memorial Hall when he came to give a talk entitled ‘By Rail to Otley’. This time round it was ‘By Rail to Bolton Abbey’. 

The hall was filled to capacity with every available seat taken. Mike fulfilled our expectations with an excellent talk about the history of this railway line from its conception to it’s closure and where to view the existing remains. The talk was illustrated with many views of the different stages in the life of this line.
