tumbled in on this site - what an interesting little railway. Next time I travel up to see the mighty LUFC I shall have to find room for a visit to the ALR.
Cheers!

Hi,

I just want to enquire if you take volunteers to work on the restoration projects at all (or any other aspect of the railway for that matter!) ? I am working with a student here at Leeds City College who would be really interested in this. Thanks, Jane


Hi Jane,
New volunteers are always welcome. The only requirements are a safe and mature attitude to working on a railway and an enthusiasm for narrow gauge railways.

Autumn diesel gala

The 18th would have been fine - but the 25th is impossible (commitments to other things happening elsewhere). Why the sudden change?

This is a pity as I could not attend the one earlier this year either because of other commitments.

Craig,

Apologies for the sudden change of date, it is due to prior commitments of our volunteers on the 18th. We will be doing another diesel gala on 14th March 2010.
You would also be welcome to come along on the 18th anyway for a guided tour of the sheds.

The Autumn diesel gala will be on 25th October 2009

Please note, this is instead of the 18th as previously advertised.

Hope you can make this date, and hopefully see you there!

Hello David

I'm writing from the picture desk at John Brown, we're publishing a local area guide to Leeds in which we have a short piece about the railway. I am writing to request some press photographs please, I would be grateful if you were able to email me a few to alice.patient@johnbrownmedia.com as soon as possible. Please do get in touch and I can explain further.

Many thanks

Alice Patient
