PaulG Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 You are always welcome to come and help rebuild and operate the 4mm OO model railway at Holt Station on the North Norfolk Railway. Paul. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulG Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 (edited) Just to add to my post above, there are no model railway clubs in the Cromer area, the nearest are in the Norwich area. However there is a good model railway shop in Cromer, Model Scenic Supplies at Northrepps and for RTR Bure Valley Models at Aylsham which seam to match Hattons for price. I retired to Norfolk from Essex, and through a friend who also retired to Cromer from Essex, we both have ended up working on the model railway at Holt and building layouts at home, rather than join a club. My layout at home is due to appear in Model Rail September issue. Paul Edited August 6, 2019 by PaulG 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Eggleton-Akers Posted August 6, 2019 Author Share Posted August 6, 2019 @PaulG I certainly will come to Holt station one day. I use to go quite frequently when I was on holiday in the area when I was younger and loved the layout when it was running. Oh nice I'll keep an eye out for your layout feature when it is published Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks in advance Hi James, I've been pointed in the direction of the Broadland Model Railway Club, only yesterday. Having lived in the Belper / Ripley area for 18 years. What's your mode of transport? Sadly North Norfolk can be a little unforgiven with public transport. I do echo what @PaulG said, check-out what is at Holt station. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulG Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 The Broadband Model Railway Club and 32A Model Railway Club both have club rooms in the village of Catfield near Potter Higham and understand either end of the same building. Paul 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Eggleton-Akers Posted August 6, 2019 Author Share Posted August 6, 2019 @17A Hi. My mode of transport is by car. Yeah the public transport around Norfolk always seems to be a problem. Especially the train network. I shall check Holt out it's a lovely place to visit. I'm moving to north walsham late September so won't be till then.
