WINTER EVENING MEETINGS

 

We hold meetings in the winter months when it can be cold and dark outside, these are held in our Carriage Shed.  All meetings start promptly at 20:00 hours on the dates given below.

We have ample parking on site.

 

The 2008/09 season's meetings are being arranged.

 

Meetings are being planned, each with an interesting topic, for the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month.

 

 

Meetings in the 2007/08 season included:

 

Jan 9th    - Quiz night

 

Jan 23rd - guest speaker: Gerry Divine on "Fast Bus?"

Gerry Divine has been in the transport industry for a long time and is currently working on improvements to bus services in this quadrant of the London area.

 

Feb 13th - guest speaker: Bob Bramson on "Braking systems for model engineers"

Bob Bramson is a noted speaker on model engineering and I understand the second half of his presentation is actually a practical demonstration, so this should be especially interesting.   Please be prompt as if he starts late we will have to trim the tea break to get everything in without a serious over-run.

 
Feb 27th - the Photo Competition.  
 

March 12th - Peter Darley on the "Stationary Winding Engines on the Camden Incline."

 

March 26th -David Wadley on "London Underground's closed stations."
 

April 9th  "Auction"

 

April 23rd  Peter Hingley "Science and Technology in the paintings of John Constable"

 

April 30th - Fifth Wednesday NO MEETING!

 

 Please watch this site.

 

If anyone can suggest more possible speakers for the 2008 / 2009 sessions, Michael Orton our Programme Manager, will be very pleased to hear of it.

Either by email to micheal@conteck.demon.co.uk or by telephone on 020 8966 9091.
