Northpoint Posted June 14, 2013 Author Share Posted June 14, 2013 Hot off the press!! Shortliner Jack has arrived! He's made it all the way from the frozen north in record time left at 4.50 this morning and arrived about 12.35. Super power or what! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-UnitMad Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Good job I'm "layoutless" this year - our car got pranged this week, and the Repairer has just brought the Courtesy Car... or Roller Skate, would describe it better... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold roundhouse Posted June 14, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 14, 2013 Have a good time all. Would love to be there. Fingers crossed that all goes well and the show can go on next year. If so, then we will be there. Ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Right, thats enough for me today - 11 hours in the shed continuous modelling! Still no back-scene though. Van turning up tomorrow at 7 - hopefully. Should give me plenty of time to set up and have a quick mooch around and do a couple of dodgy deals (Another loco for North Haston and weathering job for Steve Williams to do).

Dr Gerbil-Fritters Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Have fun everyone. I hope to be along next year, unless I'm forced to go to Az again of course. I might even have a layout by then, but it's not leaving the house, no sirree! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northpoint Posted June 15, 2013 Author Share Posted June 15, 2013 Even at silly o'clock in the morning? Traffic lights had disappereared last night so road should be fine. Spent much of yesterday evening marking out the hall. Why is it that it looks fine on paper but when it comes to the full size version, it doesn't fit. Anyway, after a few minor adjustments, we squeezed it all in. Fortunately, nobody has to set up in the car park. Off now to cook breakfast for Mrs Northpoint and Shortliner (as if I don't have enough to do today!!) and then off to the show....... see you later.

colward51 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Popped along with my 6 yr old son this afternoon Thoroughly enjoyable show. Really need to crack on with my grain elevator & this has given me the nudge I needed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve1 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Thanks to Nick for a great day out. Really enjoyed the show and the atmosphere. Even managed to get an operate on a couple of layouts, Top Of The Yard and the legendary Sin City of Shortliner Jack! See you next year with, I hope, Duncan's Mine 2. steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northpoint Posted June 15, 2013 Author Share Posted June 15, 2013 Well, that's it for another year. A huge thanks to everybody that was involved in any way - you all helped to make it a success. Judging by the feebback at the show, everybody enjoyed it. Having had a chance to count the pennies left over after all the expenditure, we have enough to pay for the venue and the insurance (the two main items) for next year. So, pencil Saturday 14th June 2014 in your diary...... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Just a couple of pics I managed between operating: Another excellent show organised by Nick and Chris - thanks for the invite and already looking forward to TVNAM 2014. Great to meet so many RM Webbers and like minded modellers. Jez Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
