Official Sittingbourne & Kemsley Light Railway Photographs
January 2008 Work Weekend
2nd February 2008

Whilst the Railway is closed for the winter, our volunteers work on numerous projects around the Railway to prepare for the forthcoming season.

The last weekend of 'out of season' months is when all members are invited to come and help out, this collection shows some of the work being carried out on the Sunday.

The Railway will be reopening on Good Friday (21st March) so there is less time this year to prepare for such a long season.
