Commercial - organisation of special events, advertising, press relations, marketing and administration

article by: Garry Owen

Many of our operational activities provide the public's perception of the railway. However, behind the scenes there are a terrific number of administrative tasks to be undertaken to ensure that all of our services are advertised. Staff must be rostered. Special events have to be organised and tickets distributed. Finances must be well managed. We have to meet all of the many regulations that are required to operate a safe railway. We need volunteers to help with Publicity, Marketing, Hospitality, Public Liaison, Secretarial, Financial, External Communications and Health and Safety. If you have relevant experience that you would like to offer or just want to get involved then you will be especially welcome.
