Free: Ocean Liners DiagramJune 12, 2025Club Member John Edwards writes:
My late friend Chris was a great fan of Ocean Liners. He was in touch with the author of a book on liners, an authority apparently, John Maxstone-Graham. It is the author’s signature on this framed picture depicting 20th Century ocean liners of various nations, a time chart of the principal ships from Titanic onwards. I have absolutely no spare space on the walls of my small flat and wondered if a SRCMBC member might like to have it?
I do not have the picture at present but it can be passed on to anyone interested.

Project: HMS Harlech CastleApril 18, 2025Club member John Edwards suggests “this looks like a nice project for one of our members to take on?” …
Andy Sweet writes:
“My friend was a ship’s Master and during various world wide voyages started a 1/96 scale model of the Castle Class Corvette HMS Harlech Castle. Sadly illness prevented model completion. This incomplete project comprises a hull and basic superstructure with two sets of plans. The hull is soundly built probably requiring a light sanding and paint respray to produce a good start for detailing. There is a motor but no RC gear. It is free for anyone interested. Please see photos.”
