FOLK TRAIN

What's it all about?
I'm asked this question
quite frequently so I thought that a brief description of what goes on,
on the night, would not go amiss.
On the fourth Tuesday of
each month we gather on platform 2C at
Sheffield Station in good time to catch the 19:14 train to Manchester
which calls at Dore (19:22) and all stations along the Hope Valley,
with music from the band throughout the journey. We reach Edale at
19:47, where we alight and make our way to The Rambler, the pub next to
the station, where the musical entertainment continues.
We take the 21:28 train back to Sheffield - with more music - arriving
at 22:03.
For more
information see the FAQ.

Old Hall Inn Winter Beer Festival
Saturday, 25 February 2012
I know that many of my regulars are fans of both traditional beer as
well as traditional music so I thought there might be interest in this
event taking place at the Old Hall Inn, Chinley, which incorporates
both of these. There is a special Folk Train to take people there, with
music from Loose Change -
Country and Western music with a touch of Blues, Bluegrass, Skiffle and
Folk for good measure - but it's from the Manchester side,
leaving
Piccadilly for Chinley at 11.45.
