Mike J Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Best of luck with the show Mike. If anyone can't decide wether to go or not, get yourselves there. This is a small friendly show with quality layouts. We were exhibiting last year and had a great time. Plenty of special ale on tap! Enjoy. Mike J.

Looking forward to it. ps will Doug's layout make it in one piece this year? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
durham light infantry Posted March 3, 2010 Author Share Posted March 3, 2010 Duly amended, even better as you're next to Stainsby. A nice little LNER corner. Doug's layout is ready now and it's in the house not the garage. I have a standby layout ready for deployment though!!! Mike Oh, this means I will have to get Felton Lane finished . But Mike it's LNER 1947 not BR. Looking forward to it. ps will Doug's layout make it in one piece this year? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottiedog Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Oh!Oh! If I am next to Paul, I had better make sure that Stainsby is upto scratch! I am putting up the scenic section of the layout this weekend to give plenty of time to finnish off those bits and pieces which did not get done for its first outing at last years Darlington Exhibition. Famous last words I hear some of you say! The fiddle yard cassettes have been redesigned, and more built,so there will be a greater variety of trains running, this time. Looking forward to the show.

puddlejumper Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Hello gents (and others) Well I am getting a bit worried now, been playing with Wildale this evening and everything seems to be working well!!! I'll have to change something otherwise I wont be doing any crawling around rewiring a layout 15mins before the opening of the show. By the way Paul, Felton Lane is looking really good, now if only you would let Simon play about with those locos of yours????? Doug smile they said things could get worse, so I smiled and things got worse!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
