Congratulations to TransWilts CRP for second place in the "Small Projects" category last night

“Such an innovative approach to widening access to rail travel.” - Riona McMorrow, judge
I expect that there are a number of other place entries and perhaps winners across the GWR area - congratulations to them too - my data feed so far this morning isn't set up to winkle them all out yet from all the entries
