Model Railways Open Day

Colchester & District Model Railway ClubColchester & District Model Railway Club are hosting an Open Day at the Orpen Hall on 6th April between 11:00 – 16:00.  Entry is free, although all donations are welcomed, and refreshments are available.

Previous Open Days have seen a number of layouts, like the St Aida’s Quay layout pictured below, to either enthuse new followers or remind older generations of the fun they used to have.  Experts will be on hand to answer your questions and there is also a second-hand stall that might just kick-start a lifelong passion.
