New Wednesday Afternoon Club Meetings
We are now holding Club meetings on Wednesday afternoons from 2.00 - 4.30pm at the Clubroom in Gunwalloe. As most of our regular Wednesday evening members are 'actively retired' it seemed a good way of avoiding dark winter evenings. We will be running our big 00 layout 'St. Martin's Square' as well as working on our other projects including our new N gauge diorama 'Lower Treluswell Viaduct' depicting a Cornish valley spanned by a Brunel timber viaduct, through which we can run a selection of typical branch line trains. We also have our large P4 layout 'Watermouth' under construction and other ideas for new layouts which can be put in motion if more members join us!
So if you live in the Helston - Lizard - Falmouth - Penzance area and are looking for a sociable hobby activity to fill a mid-week afternoon, why not come along? tea and biscuits (sometimes cake) and a friendly welcome.
Friday evening sessions continue as normal 8.00 - 10.00pm
Due to space constraints in the Clubroom, we are having to dispose of our club layout 'St. Martin's Square'. We would like the layout to go to a good home where it can be used and enjoyed. The layout measures approximately 20' x 14' and is designed to be crated up for transport. It has a fully integrated control system with automatic route selection. It features a four platform canopied terminus with handbuilt station building in the grand Victorian style; extensive goods facilities; many handbuilt buildings; a locomotive depot; private sidings serving a brewery and a landscaped section depicting a flight of canal locks.
Photographs can be found on our Layouts page, and videos of the layout are on our club Facebook page.
Realistic offers invited, please contact the Chairperson on chairma@hfmrc.uk
