Deputy Lieutenant David Russell DL joined the Provost of South Lanarkshire Council , Councillor Margaret Cooper, to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the Strathaven Miniature Railway and the 50th of the Strathaven Model Society on Saturday 22nd June 2024 .
It was also a charity day with all monies being donated to the Kilbride Hospice in East Kilbride, the nominated charity of the Provost and local councillor Margaret Cooper.
Just over £600 was raised on the day and will be presented to the Hospice later this year.
A big thank you to the volunteers who operated the railway on the day and collected this fantastic amount .
