Despite the downpours, floods and pestilence this summer,
Richard Holder and his fellow Oxfordshire NG Railway Modellers were
granted fine weather for their first group open day and nearly 250
participants, supporters and visitors were rewarded with a super event that was
well worth the considerable organisation and efforts committed towards it. 14
top quality layouts, 13 being in 009, with between them, 4 featured in Railway
Modeller, 3 trophies and a further AGM Certificate of Commendation, ensuring
that the description of "top quality" really was accurate. This
Members Day really did tick all the boxes in terms of all that is best about
this type of do - friendly, informal, great fun, splendid refreshments
available all day, and a great venue - very suitable for future events, which
we all hope will be considered for a repeat by the host Group!
