Friends of the Settle-Carlisle Line (FoSCL) new on-line shop http://www.foscl.co.uk is now fully open for business. FoCL started with on-line membership applications and renewals back in June and once they were satisfied that the system was working as planned, included some shop items.

It's an easy way to order the items on the 2009 Christmas catalogue, including this year's Christmas card, a historical photo of Armathwaite Station which is a real work of art. There's a fine selection of books, DVD's and Ruswarp miniatures as well. Have a browse!

You can join FoSCL or renew your membership on-line from the Membership section of the shop.

Looking further ahead, they have a good supply of Hornby stock which they will be promoting in the next few weeks. Look out for an announcement on the Settle-Carlisle Partnership web site, http://www.settle-carlisle.co.uk
