Some pictures from the Southern at War weekend information and sales stand

A good weekend for the fund!

We had a good weekend on the platform at Sheffield Park during the Southern at War weekend. There was plenty of interest in the project and the CYLINDER REPLACEMENT PROGRAMME in particular.
The sales and information stand set up on Platform 1 at Sheffield Park (all pictures Clive Emsley)
There were plenty of new members to our "pig club".  The only pre-requisite for joining was to feed the piggy with coins! The piggy can be seen on the left of the picture above.

We had plenty of support from the public and staff alike, and we should thank the senior Station Master and the duty Station Masters over the weekend for their co-operation with our stand.

A selection of models shown by our treasurer Stuart Bardouleau
Stuart Bardouleau (our Treasurer) showed a selection of his vast collection of military models, including the 3 foot long 72nd scale U boat!  A skilled modeller with a terrific eye for detail.
The H class on test piloting the C class
It was good to see that the Operators saw fit to run the H and C together which fitted in very well with our aims and objectives.

There will be another update following the BRPS AGM on Saturday evening.  Please come along (if you are a member) to use your votes wisely and see our new display majoring on the CYLINDER REPLACEMENT PROGRAMME.

Thanks for your continued support.
