Thames Valley [TVY]
Welcome to the Thames Valley Branch pages of the RCTS website.
We hold physical (meeting room or lineside observation) meetings during a typical year. Physical meetings are held at Didcot Civic Hall and observation meetings at various stations around our area.
RCTS members, non-members, visitors, and guests are all welcome to attend all our meetings. A door donation, at Didcot Civic Hall meetings of £5.00 is requested (free refreshments are usually available during the interval at our Didcot Civic Hall meetings).
The Civic Hall is a 15 minutes’ walk from Didcot Parkway Railway Station. Alternatively Didcot Civic Hall has a large car park which is free for hall users.
