Rail Heritage WA is holding a fundraiser at the Railway Museum on Sun 31 May to raise fund for a couple of specific, worthy goals.
The NMRA are holding a “swap meet” style event on Saturday 9th May at Warwick Community Hall, 12 Dorchester Avenue, Warwick WA from 9:30am to 2:00pm.
Update April 2025: the layout has been sold.
The club (well Mike really!) has built a lovely little 8′ x 4′ tabletop N Scale layout over the past year at the club and it is now available for sale. We are asking $1000 for it (plus $300 complete with rolling stock as pictured).
If it is not sold prior, it will be displayed and sold at Rail Fest on 6th October.
RailFest returns on Sunday 6th October! As in past years we’ll be doing behind-the-scenes tours, sausage sizzle, sales table, and all our layouts will be running.
See you there!
For your interest, a recently received link to a light hearted web site about all things railways and modelling.
Hi there,(From East Midlands, UK)
I have recently launched my own, not for profit, light hearted website called Train Mad Grandad after a comment from my grandson to distinguish which grandad he was talking about.
I have found retirement a bit difficult to adapt to as I enjoyed being useful. I am a railway modeller (RM MAG Oct 2014) and was a guard on the Kent and East Sussex Railway for some ten years.
I would be grateful if you could tell your members about me and my website.
Many thanks in anticipation
Trevor Powell
