The Railway Anniversary Models Secretary’s Challenge
This Challenge took place at our September 2023 Meeting
This Challenge celebrated a couple of railway anniversaries:
- In January 1863 the first underground railway in the world opened between Paddington and Farringdon. It’s now part of London Underground’s Metropolitan Line.
- On 1st January 1923 the majority of railways in Britain were grouped into four companies, known as the ‘Big Four’.
The idea then was for our members to build a railway model of some type, ideally from either era mentioned above.
