Title: Thaxted
Post by: Anthony Terranova on Feb 20 2026 23:45
So, I have mentioned building this previously. The committee of my local club was not keen on it being displayed due to the size however if I can build it, they will include it in next years show...

9 months to tell them if it will be ready, 12 months and 2 weeks to the show itself. If not, no worries, it will go into the 2028 show instead.

I am well armed with books, track plan, a 90% finished engine shed and drawings from the GER society for the water tower, GER 5 plank open and brake van in build from Mike Williams' kits and lots else besides.
