RAILWAY modellers can learn how to create “a slice of life” next week.

Graham Eason, of Vintage Transport in Miniature, will give a talk at Locomotion: The National Railway Museum at Shildon, County Durham, on Saturday, March 4, at 10.30am.

The talk, entitled Creating a Slice of Life, will explore techniques to complete the picture of a model railway by adding in other objects to suggest everyday life.

Tickets cost £2.50 and are available at the museum and from locomotionmodels.com
