Mod2 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Gents, I'm genuinely sorry to butt in here but I'm not sure where this talk of locking the thread has come from. As long as comments stay within accepted protocols (which they so far have), that won't happen (we do find the rucksack comments predictable and pointless though - you're not going to change anything, are you?). And we certainly won't lock it - as one poster seems to think - just because he has attracted opinions that counter his own. One other thing - if anyone has genuine concerns about anything they see on the forum, use the Report function. We don't routinely patrol every thread on the forum looking for scattered comments, and frankly it amazes us that anybody thinks we would. thanks.

JohnDMJ Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Gents, I'm genuinely sorry to butt in here but I'm not sure where this talk of locking the thread has come from. Simply as the thread becomes 'old hat' but in that case, I guess it will die its natural death accordingly! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedanticmongrel Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Is it me of have very few people posted photos of what was on offer to see at the show, without meaning dierespect to other people I am one of those people who skim thru looking at the pictures and not so much at the text. I would have taken more but the crowds were quite bad and I didn't have much time for layout watching as I am more drawn into the trade side of things.

JohnDMJ Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 So that just remains to identify him between Station Cat' and Natalie, and him on the right end! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

60B Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Can't believe that nobody recognises the big guy in the black t-shirt at the back as Baby Deltic! Can't believe HE didn't recognise himself. Perhaps he didn't see it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted November 22, 2009 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 22, 2009 Can't believe that nobody recognises the big guy in the black t-shirt at the back as Baby Deltic!

lmnp Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Is it me of have very few people posted photos of what was on offer to see at the show... I have a small collection of my favourite layouts from this year. Starting with Katami Mittsu in Japanese N. I though the snow effect was really very good. It was great to see Worcester Road shed and really appreciate the level of detail in the shed. Pensbridge was a good example of a minimum space layout with good detail. I have more pictures if people are interested in seeing them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

10800 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Went yesterday for the first time in about 15 years - and then only because I had to drive to Birmingham anyway to rescue Mrs 10800 from CK's replacement bus service from BNS to Gloucester! Arrived around 11:30, picked up prepaid ticket and walked straight in - the crowds in the left-hand aisle were frustrating but everyone's in the same boat so you just have to be patient. I hadn't gone to shop so could spend my time chatting to friends I bumped into or watching layouts of interest. Later in the day it was easy to move and only needed 5 minutes or so waiting to get to the front at any layout. To be honest Warley is not my cup of tea as an exhibition - too crowded, poor lighting and not enough real quality in many of the layouts. But I guess it is trying to cater for every taste and level, and on that basis it does a good job. I don't understand though why any layout would want to go there without its own lighting rig - too many were just lost in the yellow sepulchral gloom by the time the daylight through the roof had gone. Anyway, here's some work in progress photos of Heljan's 15 and 86, and Dapol's silver bullet: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

10800 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Which layout is that? Indeed - Redkiterail, maybe a selection of your photos with identifying captions would be useful rather than just an upload of all of them?

fiesta Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Anything special on the Hornby stand? Bachman mentioned but nothing re Hornby? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold The Fatadder Posted November 22, 2009 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 22, 2009 Dont remember seeing much thats not been on the Hornby stand at the past couple of shows its been to, (in case I missed it was the Devon & Cornwall 153 on show?) Given the proximity to Hornbys usual press day to announce the 2010 range, I'd expect that it would be rather unlikely for there to have been any new announcements at any rate.

steaming_chris Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 here are some photos of the items any right thinking 00 modellers went there just to see. Bachmann's exquisite new ex Great Central 8k, Standard 3MT 82xxx and presflo wagons Hi pedanticmongrel thank you for these pictures, Bachmann looks like they have some good locos coming out soon. May I ask why in your second photo you have a section blocked out in red, is this from another manufacturer ? Regards Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.A.C Martin Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Can I ask why the Tornado model has been blocked out? I would have liked to have seen that model. The rest of your photographs are splendid, thank you for posting them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
