THE RAILCAR ASSOCIATION

REGIONAL CO-ORDINATOR LISTS No. 1 (OCTOBER 1998)

  1. Groups and Railways who are already TRA members (i.e. subscribers to "Railcar") should contact their Regional Co-ordinator to agree a mutually convenient method of communication.
  2. Co-ordinators are responsible for contacting those organisations in their region which own or operate MUs but which are not yet TRA members.
  3. Co-ordinators will also establish contact with new preservation groups and railways which do not yet operate MUs to help them in future planning.
  4. The lists shown are TRA's first attempt at setting up a communications network for the MU preservation movement. They can be changed! Just contact your Co-ordinator to discuss.
  5. Comments and suggestions on the lists to Tony Fox, 4 The Wytchwoods, Pettaugh, Stowmarket IP14 6TB, Tel: 01473 890511, email: anthony.fox@which.net
