We are delighted to present here some photos of our group activities, members' layouts, and the rolling stock that they run. The photos are in no particular order, but are intended to give you a flavour of what we get up to.

Tim Stubbs (yes, the 'Peacehaven' guy) produced this lovely portrayal of a lineside cottage garden. It won him the Martin Philpott Diorama Trophy at the 2024 modelling competition, even though, if truth be known, it was built by his son Mike!
