Alton Limited

Alton Limited is an all American meet, where enthusiasts are welcome to come and chat, meet old friends, eat and spend money with fellow enthusiasts. The event is aimed at American Modelers, although all modelers are welcome.

Alton Limited 2008 and beyond

The 2007 Alton Limited was the last one run under the auspices of the Alton Model Railway Group at Eggars School. Rising costs and shortage of available man (and woman) power have combined to make this event uneconomic for the Group, so the Group has decided to pull its horns in and concentrate its efforts on the February Exhibition. We are all sorry to see it go and would like to give a sincere vote of thanks to everyone - exhibitors, traders, demonstrators and enthusiasts who have supported us over the last ten years.

However, all is not lost - there will be an Alton Limited in 2008. It will be moving back to its old home in the Village Hall at Medstead. AMRG has handed over the responsibility for running the Alton Limited to Tony Rogers (of Tony's Trains) and David Cole, who will run the Limited independently of the Group and other associations.

Alton Limited returns on Sunday 20 July 2008 at Medstead Village Hall, Hants.
