The Holden F5 Locomotive Trust

Today the team (Chairman Steve Cooper, trustees Bob Ayton, Aidan Kelly and Greg Kiteos) visited the Epping Ongar Railway to meet Ian Leigh, Finance Director from The Heritage Railway Association and we were presented with an HRA award for Broadcast and Social Media.  This was the culmination of hard work to increase our profile through the website and social media.   Thanks goes to Dean Walton and The Epping Ongar Railway for their hospitality.   Also thanks to Andy Butler who couldn’t make today but along with Greg have been busy organising events for Holden to attend.

With a busy season for publicity Steve Cooper and Aidan Kelly decided to test run the new publicity stand.  With no instructions (and a little bit of help from staff at the Colne Valley Railway) we managed to set up the new gazebo.  With thanks to the Colne Valley Railway for giving permission to set up on their platform.  Next up is the Tyseley open day on the June 26/27.
