The Denis Moore Cup

In the late summer of 2004 Denis Moore, President of both the CMRA and the de Haviland MRS, died. He played a very active part in both organisations for decades and is still sadly missed by both. The members of the de Haviland MRS decided that the annual presentation of a Cup for the best scenic modelling on a layout appearing at the St Albans Exhibition would be a definitive way of remembering Denis - scenic modelling being his forte. The CMRA has supported this concept and now provide a suitable replica each year for the recipient to keep, along with a plaque to be attached to the layout.

The 2012 recipient of the Denis Moore Cup was judged to be the 4mm/ft scale narrow & standard gauge layout Barrowfleet constructed by the Hull Miniature Railway Society.
