So sorry that we missed this. Devil's Bridge was already booked for another show so we couldn't attend. The standard of workmanship on the layouts pictured here looks amazing, might be best if we only turn up as punters.

Can I also say a big thank you to the organisers. We were made to feel so welcome and so very well looked after. It was great to meet so many truly exceptional modellers and to enjoy their masterpieces. As for the height issue I built Devil's Bridge so that you need to look over the embankment to see the station just as if you were stood on the road at the real place. For those people who aren't able to view the layout as intended we have a copy of RM and various photos/videos on a tablet for them to view.

As a newcomer to railway modelling, with Devil's Bridge being only the second layout I've built I'm sure it must be frustrating for the public when not a lot is running or working correctly. When we exhibited it in April at Trainwest we had no issues but between us taking it apart then and setting up at Railex on Friday something has happened to the electrics. We still managed to move locos and stock, just not in correct operating style!! I hope the public still enjoyed the layout and even without much happening on track it has taken more invites including one to Holland.
