‘The Stratford Upon Avon & Midland Junction Railway’ (or S.M.J.) was a small independent railway company which ran a line across the empty, untouched centre of England. It visited the counties of Northamptonshire, Warwickshire, Oxfordshire and a little of Buckinghamshire, only existing as the SMJ from 1909 to 1923. In 1923 the S.M.J.became a minor arm of the London Midland and Scottish (L.M.S.), then in 1948 'British Railways'

It's under groups on the banner header of the site. You have to join the modelling group, then you can see the content. I think Andy created the group so that the real SMJ research was not cluttered with our efforts, some of which are awesome! Blisworth, Blakesley and a guy has even started out on Towcester recently!
