Very pleasing to see a serious and detailed report in our local Derby Evening Telegraph about the layout that Tony Clake has built in the loft of his home in a Derbyshire village. It makes a refreshing change to see a newspaper actually explaining all about model railways without mentioning 'Thomas' or saying that Tony is 'chuffed' with his train set  :O

 

The article is here http://www.thisisderbyshire.co.uk/Tony-s-built-tiny-world-attic-lifelong-love-model/story-17826301-detail/story.html

 

What isn't mentioned is that Tony is also the Education Officer (he's a retired teacher) for the Famous Trains Charity who plan to open a large public model railway in Derby - premises have been secured as well as £70,000 of Lottery funding.
