Boxing day at Jocks Lane Miniature Railway
The Traditional Boxing Day Meet at Jocks Lane from 10am till around lunchtime (as if you need lunch after yesterday!) is on as usual this year.
The format will be familiar: Bring a Loco; bring the spouse; bring a turkey sandwich; bring a friend, but most of all bring yourself.
