Take a romantic train ride this Valentine’s Day

The Rand Society of Model Engineers is hosting a romantic Valentine's day event.

The Rand Society of Model Engineers (RSMA) has issued an invitation for residents to join them at their premises on Golf Club Terrace for an unforgettable Valentine’s Day experience on Saturday, February 14.

According to board member Shane Maitland, all funds generated on the evening will be used toward the upkeep and maintenance of the iconic RSME premises and the Woodside Station, where their true-to-life scale model trains have been providing endless entertainment for generations of children.

“Tickets are only R20 and that includes one free train ride,” he says.

“People are free to bring their own picnic blankets so they can lounge underneath the stars between romantic train rides.

“Our tuck shop will be open from 16:00 selling delicious snacks and cold drinks. There will also be a mini-donut stall, and much more.”

At Caxton, we employ humans to generate daily fresh news, not AI intervention. Happy reading!

Johan Meyer

"Johan is an internationally published journalist and editor with extensive experience in news and industry reporting. His work has featured in numerous publications over the years. He cut his teeth at the Roodepoort Record and Northside Chronicle as proofreader, swiftly progressing to junior journalist. He later joined Randfontein Herald as journalist and eventually worked his way up to becoming editor. During his years away from Caxton, he fulfilled journalist and editor positions for various industry publications at the once mighty Malnor Media House right up to their closure in 2019. This position saw him traveling all over the world on writing assignments. Since 2019, he has worked as a freelancer for various publishing houses, and had a year-long stint as senior editor for a large stable of retail and medical B2B titles, until rapid growth of his own small business required his fulltime attention. At the end of 2023, with his own business now fully staffed, Johan decided to dedicate himself to his first love, working as a local journalist for the good of his community. "
