Sir.-On September 25, the Basingstoke branch of ASLEF will be celebrating its 100th anniversary.
Two special steam trains with specially-commissioned real ale will operate, and food will also be supplied.
The committee is keen to hear from any former members of the branch who are retired or those who have moved from the area.
They will be welcomed on the trains.
Readers will also be welcome to participate and application forms are available for this.
A specially-commissioned book spanning the 100 years will also be available and the author would like to hear from anyone who can contribute either photographs or anecdotes.
For further information, contact me.
-David Taylor, Chairman, Basingstoke Drivers Social Club, c/o TCS Office, Basingstoke Railway Station.
