A quick update as the latest edition (December 2024) of BRM magazine has just hit the shops and we are very pleased to report that our latest OO layout "Sharnbrook Summit" has an 8 page spread and is also featured on the cover. Very nice it looks if I may say so.

It is always difficult to run a show, exhibit layouts and attempt to video everything all at the same time so we were very pleased that Purple Vision were kind enough to visit the show and create a great Youtube video showing Sharnbrook and all the other layouts at the show. Follow the link below.
