On Saturday 28 July 2018 several of our members enjoyed a visit to the
Leeds Society of Model and Experimental Engineers. What the Leeds
society has in common with us is that it is also based in the grounds of
a power station. Eggborough power station closed in 2016, but the
society has been more fortunate than our own, in being able to maintain
access to their track and facilities despite the end of power
generation. What we also have in common is that a founder member
of our Rugeley Power Station Society of Model Engineers, Geoff
Shackleton, is a member of the Leeds society. Geoff and his
colleagues, and their wives, made our members very welcome. We
hope to arrange another visit in 2019.
The following photographs were
taken by our member John Dutton and by Leeds SMEE member, Steve Harland.
