MUSEUM NEWS FLASH, 2008 !


NEXT TRAIN RUNNING EVENT: SATURDAY MAY 3, 2008

Join us on Saturday May 3, and expect to see
exotic, vintage '0' gauge trains running on the
Museum's spectacular layout. Normal admission
prices apply and the layouts will be running
from 11am - 1pm and 2pm - 4pm.

TRAFALGAR STREET IMPROVEMENTS WELL UNDER WAY!

We're absolutely delighted to see that the Trafalgar St.
bridge undercroft improvement project is making good
progress!!! The initiative includes pavement widening in
brick, relighting, cleaning and better signage. At present the
area directly beneath the undercroft is closed to traffic as
new paving is laid. The improvements promise to highlight
the historical significance of the undercroft structure as well
as making it an attractive, welcoming entrance to the Laines.

Brighton and Hove Council, Railway Heritage Trust,
Southern, Network Rail and others are involved in this
quality improvement. Watch for future progress.

GET INVOLVED!

The Museum is always looking for new volunteers to
help with the day to day running of the Museum.
We are especially looking for help with general
admin, (filing, etc.), Saturdays and school visits.
Please contact the museum about volunteering.

We are currently very eager for donations of
OLD TIN TOYS, particularly pre-1970 toys.
Clockwork, battery-powered and friction toys are
all most welcome. Items donated will be either
shown or sold in the Museum Shop.
