Title: World Cup of Stations 2023 Post by: grahame on May 22, 2023, 07:25:48 Through this week ... 48 stations in competition , the South West represented by Liskeard, Yatton, Okehampton and Penmere. Wales represented by stations in North Wales. Evensham creeps in for the West Midlands and there is no group for Wessex or Central Southern England.
