July/August Newsletter
« on: August 02, 2019, 02:14:32 PM »
I just got my copy of the newsletter in the mail today. What a fantastic issue to celebrate the 30th year. Well done everyone who helped make it happen. What a great read for anyone who may or may not know the history.

Hello ! I'm looking fowrards to get that  one of a kind News Letter. I just gave a quick look at it on this forum but I 'm going to wait on finding it in my mail box to read it carefully. There is nothing but a few sheets of glossy paper to make you enjoy a lot what you're reading. Thank you so much for going on sending paper issues, as a far away member holding the News Letter is like holding a bit  of that wonderfull railroad and association I'm proud to be part of.

Hello! Me again because I just got the newsletter and I have started to read it  and it's wonderful because the birth and the long story of the WW&F  are perfectly summed up on a few pages. As a newcomer  it's really a treat for me  to  discover the association past. I do like the green time chart with yeasteryear photos on each pages, it is a nifty idea.  Congratulations and thank you so much Bill and James you both have put in days on writting and editing this special issue but  you have achieved  to release a stunning one. Now I'm looking forwards to the James's book  I'm sure it'll be a bestseller.

Just received the July/August newsletter in today's mail. A superb job, Bill and crew. I took special note of Dave's "Dispatch" commentary, and James' history of the museum and its accompanying timeline were also very good. Congratulations to all on 30 years of achievement, and here's to 30 more!

Amen to that.  Kudos and thanks to everyone who provided content for the anniversary issue.  Now on to the next 30 years!
What–me worry?

I also received my July/August newsletter in today's mail and echo Wayne's words. ;D

I should have said "... and here's to 30 more and more!"
