We may be a miniature railway club but we'd like to extend an extra large thank you to everyone who came to our show last weekend and helped us celebrate our 75th anniversary in style. To everyone involved - operators, traders, societies, volunteers, the Right Honourable the Lord Provost of Edinburgh Robert Aldridge, the staff at George Watson's College, and to all of our visitors - we're very, very grateful that you made this event so special.
We would also like to thank all those who generously donated prizes to the raffle:
Traders: Rainbow Railways, Harburn Hobbies, Lathalmond Models, Franzi’s, Bernie Campbell, Douglas Blades, Locomotive Owners Group, Pop-Up Designs, and Hamilton Toy Collection.
Businesses: Tesco (Musselburgh), Toby Carvery (Liberton), Toys Galore, Pentland Plants, and TechFixd.
Personal donations: Billy Linejs, Mike and Olive Dale, Linda Saunderson, Michael Swinton, and Kay Callaghan.
We were pleased to see so many enthusiasts of all ages enjoy the show, and to see so many people brought together by such a rich, creative hobby. Whether you came to catch a rare glimpse of PD Hancock's Dundreich, learn about Victorian railway companies, or even to pick up a bargain wagon for your layout, we hope you all had a great weekend.
If you're interested in becoming a member, please see our website for details. We meet most Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:30pm, with regular evenings throughout the year to introduce the club to new members.
Our next appearance will be at Central Church's Doors Open Day event on the 26th September. Following this, we will be at the Dundee Model Railway Club Exhibition on the 17th and 18th of October.
And lastly (and certainly not least)... if you'd be interested in ordering a 75th anniversary wagon, produced for us by Rapido, please drop us an email at: [email protected]
Thank you once again - here's to another 75 years.
