West Wilts Show, Trowbridge, Thursday 26th July to Saturday 28th inclusive.     I'm there in my work capacity but I will have a "Save the Train" panel or two and some literature there.   Anyone who would like to give a hand or just drop in and see me qhould be very welcome!

Many thanks to Peter, Sion and Margaret for their support at the show - I couldn't have done it without their help on the day.

Also very grateful for the ongoing support from everyone else - and the hugely positive reaction that I'm getting from nearly everyone I speak with.

Actually - there was ONE.  Just one.  Supportive, she said, of our aims ... but not of our methods.

That was one of our elected representatives, who is also the cabinet member on Wiltshire County Council for transport and a host of other topics.  She felt that we shouldn't be encouraging people to write to her to call for an an approrpiate train service ...

My own view is that an elected politician who stops wanting to hear voter's views is on a slippery slope.  And that if we didn't keep reminding her of the case from time to time, it might just get pushed down the pile behind something else.

Did you notice what a different and much more positive position was taken by the even more senior person we spoke to, Sion?
