Did this railway (as opposed to the East & West Junction Railway) go into receivership - if so, when. And when did it come out of receivership?Continue

Shall we bring this discussion under the proper heading!So far as the OS plan surveyed 1885, published 1886, is concerned: the OS liked - wherever they could - to have text running parallel to the top and bottom borders. When they came to add the…Continue

To all members /supporters,
Last year we had an excellent get together at Stratford on Avon, why not then a recall meeting at possibly the same venue next year?
A wonderful opportunity to exchange ideas, thoughts, experiences & show off our models & 'bit of collections' relating to the SMJR.
Let's all put all put a series of possible dates together to see what can be achieved.

Sounds good!!!
Count me in!

Great idea for debate meeting -- can it be 'this end of the line' however -- Northampton or Towcester??
Great idea!!
As a fairly new member I would welcome a get-together. Before the majority of the line closed I went on one or two railtours in the 1960s. I particularly remember one from Fenny Compton to Broom Junction, where I remember seeing the points clipped and padlocked before passage of the train, and then on through Alcester. I also remember seeing bits of CAD Kineton.

Yes, a very good idea to get together as i just missed last year before i joined. I certainly will bring plenty of photographs of the S.M.J. around Stratford in the 1950 's. including the last passenger train. Brian England.
Yes would look forward to another get together at Stratford on Avon the sooner the better, really enjoyed the last one Ray Hughes.
Good day out. Thoroughly enjoyed it last time. Would come to another. Suggest late spring / summer as the days are longer and likely to be dryer under foot should we walk some of the trackbed.
Brilliant idea. Spring or Summer. Looking forward to it.
If I can, I'll be there!
