| Steve, who many may not realise is a local lad, has railways in his blood with family members working on the railways here, in Scarborough, in the 50s and 60s. Although now working at Railway Modellers headquarters in Devon, Steve likes to return to his roots as often as possible as he still has family in the area.
Railway modeller has already published articles on SDRM layouts including, North of England Line, Rumbling Bridge, Goathland, Lomond Street and Burniston Bay. While in Scarborough, Steve looked at 2 of SDRM’s latest layouts making their debuts at the show – Yorkshire Pennines and Falcon Road. Keep an eye out for their appearances in the magazine over the coming months.

Some of the Club's founding members met current members at the clubroom over a recent weekend to celebrate 40 years since the Club was first formed in 1978.
The Club's current Workshop Manager, himself a founder member, said "It was great to meet up with the Old Boys again. So much has changed in the hobby and updating our guests, as well as reminiscing over the early days has made it an enjoyable occasion. One we shall be repeating again at our Pickering Show".
