Title: Wall calendars
Post by: Newportnobby on September 10, 2018, 08:43:33 PM
Just in case there are any dinosaurs like me out there who still use a wall calendar to keep track of being alive and remembering things, I would recommend this railway one which I've had each year for the last 5 years as it has some superb b&w pics of steam locos across the years.
I have to get mine quite early (I already have the 2019 edition) as I have medical appointments etc running into next year..........

Many thanks, Mick.  Just the thing for me.  It even has a picture of Strathpeffer (the third one!) at Strathpeffer.

With regard to dinosaurs; they are all seem a bit modern and new-fangled to me.  They are probably just a passing craze for a few months.

Thank you for letting us know about this calendar.  Maybe the 2020 calendar will include a picture of Callander station.

Best Wishes.

John

Rather than start a new thread I thought I'd rsurrect this one. Does anyone know if the Hornby magazine has a calendar this year? I can't seem to find it anywhere and may have to break with tradition and go elsewhere.

The current (December) issue Hornsby magazine contains the 2021 calendar.

I usually support a heritage railway by buying their calendars. This year it is the Stainmore Railway.

I must admit I'm tempted by this one (https://www.125group.org.uk/product/2021-a4-wall-calendar/) and may try it for 2021.

I could be tempted by a STEAM railway themed Pirelli style calendar  :-[

I'd prefer Pirelli style diesel themed with domino headcodes  :thumbsup:
