The Mid Cheshire Line Station Volunteers have triumphed with a Silver Gilt Award in the Long Borders section at RHS Tatton Flower Show.

Mid Cheshire CRP Director and volunteer at Plumley Station, Harry Allen, with his wife Penny is shown with the award.

This is a major achievement for an amateur group who have no previous experience of preparing a garden for show.

The group created their own design, which is themed around a station garden.

It includes a short stretch of track and a porter’s trolley and references to the Music Trains as well.

The group grew the plants themselves and set up the garden in just four busy days.

It looks colourful and amazing, especially considering the heavy rain that hit the night after it was finished.

After the Show closes, all the plants will transfer to Mid Cheshire Line stations.

Well done to the Mid Cheshire Line Volunteers!
