The 'Basingstoke Bodgers' will have various items seen on the TV at the Basingstoke Model Railway Exhibition in March.

 

Steve Flint (editor of Railway Modeller and Challenge judge) is making a welcome return as guest Judge for the 2019 show.

 

The show is at:-

Aldworth Science College,
Western Way,
Basingstoke,
RG22 6HQ

on Saturday 9th March from 10.00 to 17.00 (or 5/00 for those of a timetable persuasion)
and Sunday 10th March from 10.00 to 16.00 (or 4/00 etc.)

Admission is:-
* adult £6.00 including free show guide

Here is a link to the Exhibition page on the Club's website where you can find details of traders, directions and the Heritage Bus service

Here is a link to the layouts which are attending.

 

We will have Santa's Globetrotting Vacation, the layout we won heat 3 of the Channel 5 Great Model Railway Challenge with, operating at the exhibition.

 

 

There will also be a new layout centred around the Royal Albert Bridge that featured in our Brunel Tribute layout that we built for the final. There should be an introduction to this layout in the March Railway Modeller. Some of the other cameo features from the Brunel Tribute layout are now standalone dioramas which will also be on show.
