TOLWORTH SHOWTRAIN 2019 CUP WINNER

The Hampton Court Model Railway Society had another successful show over the weekend of 9 and 10 November at Tolworth Recreation Centre. Visitors to the show are asked to vote for their favourite layout which is awarded the Showtrain Cup. The Show has long been associated with Remembrance Weekend, and as usual the Two Minute Silence was observed, this year being the Centenary of it's introduction by King George V. It therefore seemed entirely appropriate that the layout chosen by the public as Best in Show was 'Somewhere in France', by Peter Capon. This layout depicted a French village and surrounding countryside, showing in four scenes how it would have been at the height of the Great War, to it's appearance today. This also included the transformation of a temporary graveyard into a War Graves Commission Cemetery. The picture shows the cup being presented to Peter Capon by the Exhibition Manager, John Noorani.
