Crakehall - March 2024
We hold a meeting four times a year at Crakehall for our members to show their latest models, buy/exchange Meccano and have a general chat. Here is a selection of model photos from our March 2024 Crakehall meeting. The model competition theme for this meeting was 'Fairground Models'.
