A great show that most definitely falls into the small and delightful category, a really friendly show with great exhibits and cakes.. We will be there with Tucking Mill, aided and abetted by Laurie Griffin undergoing the next phase in his indoctrination into 2FS!

Mutton and I had a great time today.  Lovely show to be involved in. 

 

I have to endorse Chris, the host club were tremendous and how lovely to catch up with Jim in particular. 

 

Thank you for a great day out.

Good to meet up - super running locomotives which match the quality of paining and scenery.

Had a good day with Amiens 1918 yesterday. Managed to get around in the afternoon to do a little filming. Well done to all involved.

 1st February 2020  the Sodbury Vale Model Railway Clubs annual Yate Model Railway Exhibition, held at St Mary's Church and Church Hall, Yate.
This years show saw no less than 13 layout on display in various scales, including my 009 Scale WW1 Trench Railway - Amiens 1918, as well as a good selection of demos, trade and societies. 
Hope you enjoy!

Many thanks to those who supported the show, visitors and exhibitors alike.  All in all a good day but I expect there are some weary characters today amongst the club members.

We had an excellent day out with Tucking Mill. The layout behaved well, including a few 'not quite finished' items. We received some very nice comments and Laurie got a new hat!

The club, as ever, looked after us very well, many thanks to all involved.
