Last night saw the September meeting of the Cardi-Bach Railway Society, which I believe has been mentioned before. As the Chuffers are all members, we decided not to have our own meeting this week, as the Cardi-Bach meeting was going to be in the new building, which from now on will be called the Cardi-Bach Heritage Center. Not official yet, as the Society hope to have a proper opening. No brass band or celebrity, but hopefully a bit of a ceremony.

Since the last photographs that I put on here Pete Towns has done wonders, as you can see in the pics below.

Still to be done is the framing of all of the old pictures, and putting the Crymmych arms layout back up, probably in the left hand corner.

Tables and chairs are available for meetings, and can be moved around for presentations and talks, illustrations and vidoes can be shown via the overhead projector, on to the drop down screen above the big Cilgerran sign.
Inside the entrance door is a counter concealing a refrigerator and hospitality crockery etc. Also a coffee/tea urn to provide refreshments for meetings and presentations.

Final view from the back of the Centre, with Chairman Emyr showing a fine carpet embroidered with a railway scene that was gifted by a Llanfyrnach resident, who also donated to the Society a stool that was part of the old station furniture, with 'GWR' stencilled on it.

This together with a lot more pieces of memorabilia will eventually find a home in the Centre.
Many thanks to the kind people who have donated towards the cost of this project. The Society still have a long way to go to help Peter and Dawn with the cost and effort they have put into this project, so donations are still very gratefully accepted.

Come along and visit.
