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.

The Table-Top Railway is an attempt to create, in British 'N' gauge,  a 'semi-scenic' railway in the old-fashioned style, reminiscent of the layouts of the 1930s to the 1950s.

For the made-up background to the railway and list of characters, please see here: https://www.ngaugeforum.co.uk/SMFN/index.php?topic=38281.msg607991#msg607991

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.
The years have been good to me, it was the weekends that did the damage.

I must admit I'm tempted by this one and may try it for 2021.

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