Railroad Children Group Gathered at Çamlık Train Museum

Turkey's many Demiryolc Children Group members from many provinces, the town of Selcuk Aydin met at the train museum in the town summerhouse.

Approximately 200 people in the Railroad Children Group, which they formed on social media, met at Çamlık Steam Locomotive Museum and took souvenir photos with locomotives where their fathers and wives served about 40 years ago.

200 people with men and women from Afyonkarahisar, İzmir, Uşak, Zonguldak, Konya and Kayseri attended the breakfast meeting organized by group founders Serkan Basavul and friends. The participants told that they grew up between the trains at the station lodgings about 40 years ago and told each other their stories. Group members, who refreshed their memories, caused emotional moments to be experienced from time to time. Serkan Basavul, one of the group executives, said: "We established this group so that their fathers, retired wives, and the late Democratic Children of the Group met together. Because railroad is a love, it is a profession that demands sacrifice. While their fathers were working in the remote stations of Anatolia, these friends grew up having the same difficulties and school problems. They lived in station lodgings in difficult winter conditions. The life story of each is different. We are meeting several times a year in this way, we are happy. ”
