SEPTEMBER 2019: Its been an interesting and busy few months since the last news from BH MRC here at the EARM. First of all, we had a very successful annual show. Some good layouts including some nice 0 gauge. Work in the new 0 gauge Section Room is ongoing with a lot of track down and one 180 curve into the fiddle yard area complete. The "Gosfield Yard" layout has been booked for the Dapol Collectors Club Day at the Dapol Factory, always a good day out for members and a chance to get discounted purchases on the day. The layouts next outing will be in October. On the 13th the EARM in conjunction with us holds a Small Trains and Model Railway Exhibition, everything from 2 mm to the foot up to 12 inches to the foot. Traders and a good selection of layouts will be present plus all that the museum has to offer. The week before on the 6th, "Anatomy of a Layout" will make an appearance at the East Anglian Area GOG Event at the Sugar Beet Factory Social Club at Bury St Edmund, John Hobdon has all the details.
