Does anyone remember a shop in Farnham Road called CAMPS?
It was at the right hand end of the block in which MARIANS hairdressers is situated. There was a train set which used to operate by the window and my mum and dad used to take me to see it most weeks when we did our shopping. This would have been in the late fifties/early sixties and I still think of it from time to time. I did eventually get a train set for Xmas and always imagined watching it behind glass just like the one at Camps. It got me interested in trains; real and model; and led to me becoming an IAN ALLAN train spotting enthusiast during my youth. Ah the memories. |
