Cathedral Fellowship | Richard’s Great Rail Journeys

Richard Ashby has loved trains and railways since his earliest years. In this presentation he takes us on a journey from the wooden trains of childhood to his European and cross-continental journeys and his railway holidays in Switzerland.

Richard was Head of Libraries and Archives in Bath and North East Somerset before retiring to Chichester where he has been a member of the Cathedral Congregation for 15 years. Amongst other activities he looks after the Cathedral Fellowship.


At the Cathedral Fellowship members of the congregation and their friends gather together informally, to greet old friends and to make new ones. If you are new to the Congregation, it’s an excellent opportunity to meet new people and to begin to feel at home. We meet once a month for a talk or presentation on a wide range of topics, some of which are related to the Cathedral and Christian belief and practice and others are of more general interest. All our presenters are informal and approachable. There no tickets and no membership, though we ask for a donation to cover expenses.

We are meeting at Vicars' Hall with the talk followed by questions and discussion and the all-important cup of tea. We start at 2.15pm and the gathering lasts about 75 minutes.

Everyone is very welcome.
