Eric Maddicks

It is with great sadness that I have to inform you that my father Eric Maddicks passed away on Wednesday the 18th March. at the age of 94. He was a great railway enthusiast all his life, both modelling and full-size live stream. Along with my late mother Mary they looked after the sales stand for many years. He was determined to see the loco run for the first time, but missed out by only a few weeks.
