Well, the Llandudno Victorian Extravaganza is over for another year. We'd like to say a big thank you to everyone who came to see us, chatted with us, purchased souvenirs or joined our Society. We hope you enjoyed your visit, and for those of you who were on board, your ride in the parades or evening excursions. We'd also like to thank the organisers of the Extravaganza for inviting us to attend, and congratulate them for putting on a fantastic event once again! Keep checking back either to our Facebook page or website for updates on our forthcoming activities and appearances.
We've had a great time already at this year's Llandudno Victorian Extravaganza, with a number of new members joining our ranks. Sales of souvenirs etc have been steady, and we've made some very useful contacts! If you haven't already been to see us, you've only got one more day!

Tram Rail Rescue - As local people may be aware, the council is having new offices built on the corner of Conway Road and Coed Pella Road. Whilst the construction company were digging a manhole area, one of the Society committee members spotted a length of tram rail. After consulting our Tram custodian, John Bird approached Bowmer and Kirkland (the construction company). As a result, the Society has acquired a 10 foot length of the original tram rail.
