Happy new year to all our friends and supporters.
2017 is a big year for us as it marks the 40th anniversary of the closure of Exchange station and the opening of the Merseyrail underground. We will be holding various events to mark this milestone throughout the year, and more details will be available soon.
In the meantime, we’d like to make you aware of an interesting event taking place in Liverpool on 16th January. John Ryan, a key member of the team who built the Merseyrail Loop and Link, will be speaking to the Tramway and Light Railway society and showing some unique pictures of the construction.
The event takes place at Greenbank Sports Academy at 7.30pm on 16th January, and admission is just £2. More details on the UK Model Shop website.
