Saturday 28th April

 

This year the majority of the Saturday is free for those who wish to come down to Somerset early, to spend time as they wish. Heritage railways such as the West Somerset Railway and the Lynton & Barnstaple Railway are close by, for example.

 

I can also confirm that Taunton MRG have once again agreed to open their clubroom at Bishops Lydeard station specially for us from 1700 to 1900 hrs on the Saturday, with the usual warm and friendly welcome.

 

As a thank you for their generous hospitality, we will be presenting Taunton MRG with a new train - details here : http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/132493-swag-members-day-taunton-mrg-the-swag-freight-train/

 

 

After visiting Taunton MRG we will continue to The Lethbridge Arms, Bishops Lydeard.  More information on the pub can be found here http://www.thelethbr...pub.co.uk/index

 

 

Sunday 29th April

 

Doors for setting up layouts open at 8:00, prior to that we'll be laying out the floor plan.

 

Doors for members to visit open at 10:00 and close at 16:00.

 

 

We look forward to seeing you there !!

General request :

 

Would anyone who is intending to come to Taunton like to offer a demonstration exhibit ?

 

This could be anything - buildings, rolling stock, weathering techniques, cutting machines, 3D printing - what ever you like.

 

Please let me know.

 

Cheers

I can't bring a model railway exhibit this year, but I can deliver an exhibition on pasty consumption for the benefit of fellow modellers.

 

I'll even bring my own KFS & napkin.

 

happy weekend, everyone!
