RMweb Premium ColinK Posted November 4, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 4, 2023 I manged to get a day off and went to Rainford today with my 009 micro layout ‘Fryden Brick’. Has to be the friendliest and most welcoming model railway event I’ve ever been too. Everyone was happy to spend time chatting and sharing ideas, spent far far too much on the two trade stands, plus the best ever bacon butties. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
