National Railways on the Air Weekend
27th - 28th September 2008

Bishop Auckland Amateur Radio Club is co-ordinating the
National Railways on the Air Weekend
celebrating the anniversary of the first steam powered passenger railway journey
which took place on 27th September 1825
on a line in North East England from Darlington to Stockton.
The Bishop Auckland Club is expecting to operate special event station
GB2EVR at the Eden Valley Railway.

If you would like to take part by running an Amateur Radio Station,
approach your nearest preserved railway,
ask if they are celebrating the birth of passenger railways in this country
and would they like to have an amateur radio station
as part of their event to promote awareness of their railway.

Once you have their agreement, apply
for a special event licence in the usual way with Ofcom.

When you have the details of the station, please register at
www.barac.m0php.net/. Please click on the 'Register for the
Railways on the Air Weekend' link and enter details of your
special event station in the contact box.
