Brian Leedham's Rail Media
Tribute To A Rail Heritage Legend.
Wanted to take a little time out to mention the 'Brian Leedham's Rail Media' Facebook page.
People who know me, by know me I mean actually have taken the time to get to know me, rather than spread lies and mistruth around internet hate sites, know that I had a great interest in railway heritage and admiration for the many people who give selflessly to help it without constantly making sure people know.
I have only known Brian for a few years and, not surprisingly, we first met at a meeting to launch the 'Merriwa Railway Society' in, not surprisingly, Merriwa.
This initial meeting has lead on to the successful museum that exists there today.
While Brian is no longer involved in the project, there is no doubt that his huge initial efforts has allowed this museum to exist and the whole precinct continue to improve.
Despite that success, and endless hate attacks, Brian has not rested and is not trying to raise awareness of other historic railway stations that just languish, awaiting their chance to receive the Merriwa treatment.
Even if only one or two more turn out to be successful, at least Brian can proudly say that he tried far harder than most. Many of us feel that he is well overdue for a volunteer award.

I would also like to take the opportunity to thank Brian for all his support of our 'Trains For Kids With Cancer' fundraising project.
Not only his direct support, but also being someone to talk about the hate aimed my way from railfans who seem to have an issue with any fundraising I also choose to do. Your support is much appreciated and you will always have mine.
