Most narrow gauge modellers are familiar with Narrow Gauge
South West, the annual show in Shepton Mallet that kicks the winter blues away
every February and in many people’s opinions, is the best annual show of them
all. Not a lot of people however are very familiar with the small but dedicated
band of mainly North Somerset based modellers
called the Small & Delightful Railway Group who have organised NGSW for
many years. Every 2 years they get together and have their own opportunity to
play trains and generally enjoy themselves with an open day held at the village
hall in Compton Dundon, a few miles south of Street. 16 layouts (hey, that’s
one more than they have at ExpoNG this year!), a good venue, lots of informal
friendly fellowship and some outstanding refreshments from the ladies of the
Glastonbury Lions. Some may not be aware yet that next year (2017) will be the
last NG South West, but I’ve been assured that the S&D Group will carry on
and will still be holding their super open day every other year – 2018 in the
diary already!
