The Trent Valley Area Group of the 7mmNGA would like to invite you all to our annual January open day, taking place on Saturday 18th January 2020 from 10am to 4pm.
 

This will be our first open day since we lost our good friend Tim to cancer at the end of July, and there will be a sale of Tim’s models and books to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Care.

Thanks Neil

 

Phil Traxson has confirmed that Port Wynnstay Models will also be there. 

 

With the sale of his military models and some 4mm stock, I have already got almost £500 for Macmillan and the HO locos will be on the table at the Mickleover Swapmeet at the same venue (above) on 30th November. Although a couple are complete, the others are a kit of parts as Tim had dismantled the locos to their component parts and so would make a good project for the enthusiast who likes a challenge putting things back together . . . . ! !

That’s the Trent Valley open day over and done with for another year. Thanks to all who came, saw and spent money with us. It was lovely to see everyone and we raised a good amount for Macmillan Cancer Care in memory of Tim. 

Look forward to seeing you all again next January!
