Hi dear friend LGs, “Great Indian Heritage Walk II’ is a pan India meet-up, and we, a group of LGs from different parts of South India, would love to join a session at “Chennai Rail Museum”. “Chennai Rail Museum Heritage Walk” will be an apt destination, because it has Heritage & Technical Exhibits! Formerly known as the Regional Rail Museum, this museum includes Vintage Coaches of British time, which is more than a century old. The Toy-Train Ride, an Indoor Art Gallery adds value for the visitors. The Museum, which is spread over 6.25 Acres, is maintained by Integral Coach Factory (India). We are sure that this will be great place to get together, utilize some valuable time & capture few rare shots. Also, we hope to get some exposure to modern Rail & allied subjects, through audio visuals, if time permits. We are also planning for an Introductory Workshop on “Drones & Aerial Photography”. A brief discussion on “How, Aerial Photography” can help “Google Map” will also be included. Along with other Heritage Walks, our Aim is to make this meet-up, a memorable one. I am sure, we all LGs together will make this meet up a great success! Meeting Point: Main entrance of the Chennai Rail Museum. Timing: 12:30 PM (5th May, 2019) Public Transit: Villivakkam Railway Station, Anna Nagar Tower Park Metro, ICF Bus station & other local commutation. Parking facility is available. Dear LGs, eagerly waiting to see you all, very soon… With regards, TravellerG

Thanks a lot for your inspiring response to our meet up, dear @KatyaL - Since you are a Photography lover, I shall surely post (& tag you), some selected photos & hopefully a Photo Album, too.

I have done few Recaps, earlier; but will follow the updated guidelines, which you have given, for the coming, Rail Museum meet up.

Your greetings are always a motivation! Once again thank, you.

REQUEST FOR A HELP:

On 5th May, we, few Consultants are reaching (from different part of South India) to conduct few WORKSHOPS, to few LGs. One of such Technological Session on “Virtual Google LGs Meet-Ups” is during a meet-up hosted (applied) by @RVDG - (Chennai Light House - one of the oldest Light House, renovated). Unfortunately, it is coming still showing as pending; Could you kindly help us to get this ‘Meet-Up’ sanctioned, please. Thanks in advance.
