Sleaford model railway club chuffed with rail show success
Mark Bamford from the club said they had many favourable comments and have every intention of repeating the event next year, but this time over two days.
He said: “We had a really good response from railway modellers and the local community. We had various railway layouts depicting scenes from around the world and in every scale, as well as a lovely tin plate layout under the banner of ‘trains your granddad used to play with’.”

Mr Bamford hoped to have attracted a number of new members - some did not even know the club existed.
The club is also looking for a permanent base to rent where layouts do not need to be packed away as they have to currently at Osbournby Village Hall. Call him on 01529 307041 or email: [email protected].
