Good Afternoon, We are back from another very enjoyable open day operating at the club. The O gauge ran well and there were as always a few visiting locos with a few members bring their own locos down. I never got the opportunity to take many photos and have replied on ones collected from the other members. There was plenty of modern traction running around along with the regulars. A recently completed GSWR 0-6-2 Class 45 on it's first outing looked very well on the layout. IT also gave us an chance to show off the new engine shed developments, attached are a few photos. This is our current Thursday evening project for the new year.

Good evening all I would like to thank all visitors who attended today and braving the weather , hope you all enjoyed and thought worthwhile. And to the exhibitor's who gave up there time , to help create a good day , we appreciate your commitment .

Good Evening, We are all back now from setting up the show. Weaver Hill which has not run in a while has proved to still be in good shape and most of the stock has run well on it. We are looking forward to a day playing trains tomorrow. There are a few more layouts to set up and then we shall be all ready for the off tomorrow at 10am. We look forward to seeing those of you who brave the wind there

There is nothing like a little last minute prep. Thats been the case for the past two evenings getting Gresty Lane back up to scrach after 12 years at least sitting gathering dust. It still looks very acceptable though for its age. It's first outing being in 1992. Weaver Hill has also been progressing with a few new additions

Good Evening, We have had two 00 layouts confined for the show Rushwick a small GWR BLT and Dunnington DVLR which can be found here in rmweb. We are nearly now all set and ready for the show and we hope the weekend goes well. There are slight modification happening to Weaver Hill along with some refurbishment work with Gresty Lane. For those attending the road leading to the school is opposite the Gresley Arms Pub in the village of Alsager Bank. Parking is also available at the cricket club as well as the school in Alsagers Bank

I shall look forward to seeing this. I think the easy option is to do an FL one hired in

This is great, as always I am enjoying following this thread, do you dare tackle a Bachmann class 90 into ONE next Also who do you use for your Anglia decals as you have the orange spots also. I use precision on mine but looking for the orange dot. Especially to update an intercity set. Thanks

A few photos of Bluebell cutting. I hope the £1.50 is worth it, and if not there is always a pub over the road. I think the name of Culthwaite works well and it does sound very S&Cish. As for Port _____? it could be quite clever as it is only half of the full layout thus I've been left with Port ______ ?

Good Morning, I have just come across this layout and I'll be looking forward to following your progress. The coaches look excellent you have done a really good job.

List of layouts attending so far. Port _______ ? 7mm Weaver Hill 4mm Gresty Lane 3mm Hartley Poole Too 2mm Bluebell Cutting 2mm Rycroft Arena 2mm Culthwaite 2mm

Another layout which has been confirmed from the start but I have just received some photos for is the small 0 gauge harbour layout.. The layout does not really have a name so can be only classed as Port ______ ?

Good Morning All, It has been a while since the last post. Since the last post another layout has been confirmed Culthwaite. This is a small station based on the S&C portrayed in the present day. Another update is on the catering side. We have added Bacon & Sausage baps

I stand correct

I'm looking forward to seeing Ryecroft there. You can never go wrong with DMU's in and out of a platform.

Good Afternoon, Just a few photos of one of the layouts attending. Hartlepool Too. Photos taken by Andy York of this parish

For those looking for where the exhibition is to be held, below are two very basic maps. The schools is signposted from the main road as The Richard Heathcote Community Primary School, however is now called, Alsagers Bank Primary Accadamy Postcode ST7 8BB We are formulating a layout plan this evening.

Goood Evening, Just a quick update, Weaver Hill our 00 4mm ohle layout shall be attending this show. Also Clough Street a 7mm industrial shunting layout Cheers Benjamin

A note for your diary Saturday 27th November 2021. Members of Alsager Railway Association have been presented the opportunity to run a small show towards the end of this year. The show shall be a very low key event and give members a chance to run their layout that have not had chance to be out for 18 Months. I shall fill in more details as they are confirmed with such things as layouts attending. So far we have Hartlepool 2 (2mm), 1 4mm layout, and a 3mm layout names and details to be attached. As this is a very small event there shall be tea, coffee and biscuits available. The show shall be held at Alsagers Bank Primary School. More details to follow.

Good Afternoon, Following on from the success of our last open day we have penned in the date of 29th December for our Christmas open day I know it's too soon to be talking about Christmas. As with all the open days which have gone before it is a bring your own stock and play trains affair. An excuse for a few hours away from family engagements. The timings are from Midday until around 4 and as always there shall be refreshments available. I shall upload the photos from the last open day soon and post them. Benjamin

Afternoon, It has been decided that we shall once again open up our club for an 0 gauge open day on Sunday 19th Sept 2021 1200-1600. This shall follow the format of our other open days. We shall have the layout running in DC or DCC so please feel free to bring along any 0 gauge stock you wish to run. Even if it just a loco we should have carriages or wagons available. It gives us all a chance to run stock and anyone who is interested to see the progress being made on the new layout. As always there is refreshments available at the club house. The address is Moorhouse Avenue Alsager Stoke-on-Trent Staffs ST7 2DH We look forward to seeing you there Benjamin
