Every year we run a Diesel Day for Diesel & electric outline locomotives only. This
is a relaxed inter-club running day, with plenty of opportunities to compare notes and chat. Lunch and morning
and afternoon tea are provided. Members of other AALS affiliated clubs are welcome.
Our Gauge 1 track will also be available for battery-powered diesel outline locomotives.
Our next Diesel Day will be in July 2021
Please note our track rules, and in particular that we maintain
a minimum age of 7 years for operators (persons 7-17 years inclusive must be under the direct supervision
of a competent adult at all times).
