THE North Wilts Model Engineering Society is celebrating its most successful year for passenger numbers since setting up 40 years ago.
More than 12,000 people rode aboard its steam and electric trains on its two circuits at Coate Water since April.
This is more than in the whole of the 12 months before April.
The society meets every Sunday, weather permitting, between 2pm and 5pm, when the public can ride on the miniature trains.
All are welcome to attend meetings, and the model railway is signposted from the main car park of the water park.
Anybody wishing to join the society or find out more about its work is invited to call society membership secretary Dave Jenner on 01793 771443.
