Our initial season of Zoom meetings has now come to an end, and as they have been deemed a great success, planning for the next season of meetings, to start in September, is well under way. Dates for the rest of this year are below, details will be added when available.
These meetings are free to all: the aim is to reach as wide an audience as feasible, especially to include those Club members who, for whatever reasons, do not attend normally Branch meetings or Reunions. Non-members of LCGB at home and abroad are also welcome to join us.
To register, please complete and submit the appropriate form (below) for the meeting – having done so, you will receive an e-mail with joining details. Alternatively, send an e-mail to lcgb.zoom@gmail.com, no later than the Tuesday before the meeting, giving your name, e-mail address, LCGB membership number, or Society of which you are a member, where you will be joining the meeting from (town, and country if outside the UK), and the meeting(s) you wish to attend.
For the benefit of those unused to attending Zoom meetings, the best way is to do so is by the Zoom Workplace App, which you should download from the Zoom Download Center and then install. Simple instructions for attending Zoom meetings (that I produced a few years ago) are obtainable here.
Please note: All presentations, and included images, are copyright. Do not record or screen save any part of the meeting. It is LCGB policy that, by default, we will not be recording these meetings.
If you have any queries, please contact lcgb.zoom@gmail.com.

 GWR 3040 Empress of India, a Dean bogie single of the 3031 class built in 1894, departs Paddington with an express in 1908. While seemingly Victorian, the observant will note the appearence of the modern image, in the form of a Hammersmith & City electric train, in the background. Image: LCGB/NRM Ken Nunn collection |
