I am thinking I ve made right choice and I am in the nice profit since april-2005. I Re: Online Investment Offer - 1464/4006 Written by Nick Field on Wednesday, 21st February 2007 Todd Hello. I think you have come to the wrong place here. This site is primarily about campaigning to retain an appropriate "TransWilts" passenger train service ... Swindon - Chippenham - Melksham - Trowbridge - Westbury - Dilton Marsh - Warminster - Salisbury ... and to other services too. Do you have any rail related stories from your area you could share with us? Thanks (links deleted from above post) Re: Online Investment Offer - 1464/4008 Written by Lee on Wednesday, 21st February 2007 [quote author=bengann link=topic=1464.msg4005#msg4005 date=1172046848]Do you like to receive trusted, stable, guaranteed from day to day income ?[/quote] Why not try a 2 - hourly Melksham service at times that people would actually want to use it?

Save the Train was the campaign to bring an approriate train service back to and through Melksham. Most big contributors are still around writing at the Coffee shop forum where new members are very welcome. The train has been saved - sort of - we have stepped back up from an unusable service to a poorish one but it's doing very well. We did that through setting up the TransWilts Community Rail Partnership. That fulfilled its early objectives; it has been taken over by local and regional government types who are now doing medium and long term work. The team from this forun can also be found at the Melksham Rail User Group (which was the Melksham Rail Development Group at the time these articles were written and we had no users. We mustn't loose sight, though, that the train service remains poor and needs our community support in marketing and campaigning to keep it going in a positive direction ... and all the more so when we're expecting to find a different normallity once we get out of the Coronavirus Pandemic and head for zero carbon via the climate crisis. Yes, it's saved ... it's now a key community facility ... the need for enhancement and the strong and near-universal local support remain, and the rail industry and goverment remain slow to move and provide the enhancements even to level us up with other towns. Please support the Melksham Rail User Group - now very much in partnership rather than protest with the rail industry and local government, including GWR, TransWilts and unitary and town councils. And please use the trains and buses, and cycle and walk when you can. -- Graham Ellis, (webmaster), February 2021 | |||
