Event information

BERNARD MILLS: Railwayman of 57 years railway service, Bernard worked in the ticket office at Tavistock North for the last 18 months of the station’s life. He always took a camera to work and as a lifelong railway enthusiast has been photographing railways for the better part of 6 decades. He has written a number of books on railways.

TALK: The talk is a look at the railways that served the china clay area, some long gone, by way of a journey from Lostwithiel to Fowey and then over the former line to St. Blazey. We then visit Par Harbour to see Judy and Alfred in action including very rare pictures of Judy working the short branch to Par Moor. We then move on up the still ex-tant Newquay branch to examine in detail the now long gone and mostly eradicated branches to Carbean Wharf and Carbis Wharf, with some eye catching views of both then and now .
