I did say 10+ and that's 11.

In addition A Royal Train display, my plastic wagon kit building demo where I intend to let anyone who

has never handled them before put down some HMRS pressfix decals. I have old spares here !!

Which kit is this ? Is it the only source for a FM container ?

One thing I forgot to mention is that following our clubs annual diorama competition to

be held this coming Tuesday all the entries will be on display at Beaminster.

I usually find myself in second place, and here is my 2019 offering.

To keep rules simple we just insist on some railwayana content and within a maximum of 24 inches wide and 24 inches long. Any scale, or gauge accepted. This one being in 4 mm '00' and I can't even remember the exact size, around 12 inches by 16 inches ..... I think.

Heard of K & M Trees ?

Yes they were part of the Peco empire, but now an independent trader.

They will be at Beaminster, A brave move to take on and develop further.

We will welcome and give all the support we can.
