I found this in a magazine, and thought it may interest some members. Culm Valley model railway club are showing off their work of 5 years at Sampford Peverell Village Hall. For those who don't know where it is, you will find it about a 15-minute walk from Tiverton Parkway station.



If seeing the layout leaves you dry or hungry, may I recommend the Globe very close by? If you plan to eat, I would recommend booking, as it is rather popular. The more energetic may even fancy a walk along the Grand Western Canal, which helpfully passes through the pub car park.

I realised this afternoon, to my shame, that I had not shared a photograph of the layout.



Better late than never.

Would there be any possibility of grahame - or any other member who has one - posting the 1967 timetable for Tiverton Junction on here?

This reminds me about whatever happened to TV's 'The Great Model Railway Challenge'?  This team looks like they could have be challengers.
Prompts Marlon Brando's line from On The Waterfront, "I could have been a challenger".

I've changed at Tiverton Junction for Hemyock and Tiverton in the late 50s. I staying at Newton Abbot I did a trip from there via Exter to Hemyock On returning to Tiverton Junction I was told it would be quicker  to Exeter to go via Tiverton. Thus I did both branches. Also at Tiverton I saw the line up of the 3 14XX at the North? end of the station. Unfortuantely I didn't have a camara.
