Models are on the right track

MODEL train fans were on the right tracks when they attended a special exhibition.

Members of the Kenavon Railway Society brought in their layouts and tracks for the day, which was held at The Warehouse in East Reading. Visitors were able to see the layouts, including one featuring Thomas The Tank Engine, get modelling tips and buy all the kit needed to recreate the layouts at home. The exhibition raises funds for local railway preservation projects and was organised by the Society’s chairman, Richard Standing. He said: “I am extremely pleased with how it went. “We had our highest ever number of visitors through the door and raised over £500 for the Cholsey and Wallingford Railway to put towards their new station facilities at Wallingford.”
