MEMBERSHIP DETAILS Benefits of Membership
At the moment, the club cannot handle the enrolment of new members on-line, but click here for a printable form which includes our current membership rates. If you want to view an electronic copy of our gatefold brochure, click here, but remember that you will need Adobe Reader to open this; a free download is available here. If you want to print the brochure, then if you can set the page scaling to 'None' and the print layout to 'Borderless', otherwise Adobe Reader will add its own borders. This is not a major problem, but has the effect of making the printed area slightly smaller than it should be. If you then went to the trouble of folding the brochure at 99mm and 198mm, you would find that the content of each page was not centred. For most visitors, this 'problem' will be insignificant, but it caused no end of head-scratching when we were getting the brochure ready for our printer! |

The European Union's General Data Protection Regulation became law across all EU Member States on Friday 25th May 2018. It provides improved privacy rights for individuals, and imposes increased responsibilities on organisations. Railway Ramblers takes the protection of members' personal data very seriously, and the club's Privacy Policy (its 'data protection policy' by another name) can be viewed by clicking the link here. An Author's View 'Old railways provide
uniquely fascinating routes through both town and country, but they remain
man-made, artificial routes. Almost inevitably, one finds questions coming
to mind - why does the line go this way rather than that? who travelled
this route and why? and what sort of machines were in use? The more you
think you know, the more the questions multiply and the more fascinating
the whole exercise becomes - and I use the word "exercise" deliberately
for, if railway walking does nothing else, it does get us out of the dusty
archives and into the open air.' (Anthony Burton, Walking the Line,
Blandford Press, 1985) |
