WWRUG is an independent association for all those keen to maintain and enhance rail services in West Wiltshire. Meetings are held during the year at various venues within the West Wiltshire towns with prominent speakers from the rail industry, train operating companies and local government. Members receive a regular newsletter providing news and service updates. The WWRUG provides a forum for airing your views and informing rail management of our needs as passengers.

New members are always welcome. Membership subscription is currently a very modest £6 / year (individual membership) or £7 for family (2012) which funds hire of meeting rooms and covers printing and postage of the newsletter. We are now in our 22nd year. The WWRUG provides a strong voice to bring a better rail service for West Wiltshire and beyond. Contact our Membership Secretary, Rob Brown on 01225 864221.

There has never been a better time to protect and enhance the service!

Almost single-handedly we saved the Bristol / Waterloo service and now it has been enhanced too...... so go on, join us!


After acting as Vice Chair for some time Roger Newman is now our Chairman and Janet Repton is our Vice Chair.
