IWLR EA: Here are your achievements!
We’ve been out and about to Pyrmont depot for the IWLR EA and outlining the major things members achieved by sticking to their guns. We’re expecting that the company will put this out to a vote, and we’ll update you as things progress. For now, it seems the forgotten depot is not forgotten anymore!
