Sadly I must report that John Holden, owner of Liverpool Lime Street, suffered a break-in at his home. The thieves have stolen all of John’s locomotive. Thankfully the layout was not damaged.
Should you hear, or be offered any locomotives, then please take note and advise the Society info@emgs.org or phone the Editor. Information will be forwarded to John.
