The luncheon honoured newly retired members Ken Sutton and Graeme Turner. It was a big roll-up with 85 people attending the function and it’s always a nice opportunity to catch-up with friends who they may not have seen for a few years.
Club members travelled from as far away as the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Brisbane, the North Coast, Hunter Valley region and Sydney.

We are the second oldest railway retirement club that celebrates members who have retired in the past 12 months. The oldest railway retirement club is Enfield in Sydney which started in 1946.
Ken Sutton and Graeme Turner gave speeches and thanked everyone for attending and catching up with old friends and talking about their time at work.
One retiree Mick Kime was unable to attend due to family commitments. It was a great day and everyone had a great time.
