Modelrail has been on the AMRA WA calendar since the early 1980s and provides the opportunity for members to show what we do in our hobby and for the public to enjoy the results of our interests.
The S scale group was well represented among the 20+ other layouts, displays and modelling desks. Over 250 visitors had the opportunity to visit the club-rooms and see the club's 16-odd layouts in almost every scale imaginable and in operation The Day was ably coordinated once again by Trevor Burke and well supported by the AMRA WA membership.
The S scale special interest group had a nice information stand and display run by AMRA life member Graham Watson showing what we do and the resources we use to build our models, in particular, WA railways in S scale. Close by was the well presented Swan View layout operated by five of our S scale AMRA members; Noah, Gerard. Alex, Stuart and Ally.
There was a range of members' models and consists running during the day including railcars, steam and diesel locomotives, coaches, goods wagons and vans.
There was quite a lot of orange among the black, brown and green and cream liveries which the public enjoyed seeing.
