Build a LEGO model of Surbiton station
One of the UK’s finest modernist railway stations has been immortalised in LEGO, and the local friend’s society is selling kits so you can build your own mini-station.
The model contains 99 real LEGO parts and two special printed blocks and once assembled, it measures 17.5 x 4.5 x 9 cm. It shows the clock tower and famous frontage, along with the side wing for the station building.
The model is available for pre-order only. Orders need to be placed by the end of Tuesday, November 5th. They can then send the model in the post, or you can collect it locally.
It’s the sort of thing a local resident would probably quite enjoy as a Christmas present.
The model costs £30, plus £6.50 for shipping if you don’t collect in person.
Order details are here.
The model has been designed by The Brick People for the Friends of Surbiton Station.
SUPPORT THIS WEBSITE
This website has been running now for over a decade, and while advertising revenue contributes to funding the website, it doesn't cover the costs. That is why I have set up a facility with DonorBox where you can contribute to the costs of the website and time invested in writing and research for the news articles.
It's very similar to the way The Guardian and many smaller websites are now seeking to generate an income in the face of rising costs and declining advertising.
Whether it's a one-off donation or a regular giver, every additional support goes a long way to covering the running costs of this website, and keeping you regularly topped up doses of Londony news and facts.
If you like what you read on here, then please support the website here.
