RMweb Gold mudmagnet Posted March 25, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 25, 2018 I took a few photos on Arun Quay over the weekend and need to sort through them all, but a taster. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted March 26, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 26, 2018 Nice run over on Sunday from the Principality. Star of the show for me was Arun Quay and an opportunity to chat to the Gravetts. Worth the admission for that alone. Nice to see Hounslow in the flesh.......er wood....plastic...metal...Unexpected pleasure to bump into Mudmagnet at the controls. Did a double take at Abercynon as it wasn't Brian Tuckers well known example. All in all worth the trip to a nice venue. Rob. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leavesontheline Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Great little show this year, as always. Standouts for me were Vale of Oxbury and Arun Quay. Both amazing in their own ways. Good to see Lord and Butler with a small stand. Maybe they'll be back next year with more stock. Did I overhear the Modelmania owner saying he was retiring and shutting up shop this year or was that just show stalls? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice as it's in EM as opposed to OO. Is it a compliment or an insult to have your layout copied? Although it is slightly longer and has a couple of points on it.

That's funny the owner of Modelmania was not attending the show Edited March 26, 2018 by 40F Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
