Penrhos1920 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Well here we are again, another year has passed, this years event will be in aid of The Great North Air Ambulance and Hartlepool Hospice. The doors open at 10am on Saturday 21st October..... When do doors close and where in Hartlepool? That's assuming you're in Hartlepool as so many shows say one place and are somewhere else, e.g. Lincoln show in Newark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLPG Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Great show again guys. There this morning with the Durham Locomotive Preservation Group team. Well recommended 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggzuk Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Great show, thanks. Good mix of layouts and trade stands, my two boys had a great time and did I. Some top class layouts and a broad mix of scales form Z to O. Came home inspired as usual with this show and not stressed out like some over crowded shows. Must have been free car parking last year, as now it cost £1:50, but with the economical food prices I guess it was OK. Shall look forward to next year. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porcy Mane Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Never mind the car park charges. The nightlife is stonking! Coming up three o clock and we've just been invited to our third party of the night. Super. P Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Brit70053 Posted October 22, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 22, 2017 Got a late invite for a ride to Hartlepool and had a good afternoon. Most impressed with Grantham - first time I've seen it 'Live' - and Blackgill , my second sighting and managed to get a much better view this time, plus the bonus of informative chat with the operating team (insert smiley face). Also had a good chat with Martin Smith, delaying progress with his O gauge Garrett build and made a small purchase from the DLPG guys. Thanks for a very enjoyable afternoon all.

Redsrail Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Excellent show with some very nice layouts. Treated myself to a couple of bargain priced new locos from Loughborough models plus a book from Grosmont books. Best bit of the day was sausage roll, chips and mushy peas in the cafe.......so yeah, all in all a day well spent. Roll on next year, thanks to all involved.
