Moderators AY Mod Posted July 6, 2020 Author Moderators Share Posted July 6, 2020 If you 'visited' the show over the weekend I would like to impose upon on you all and ask if you could complete the anonymous survey so we can better understand what sort of content people enjoyed (or not!). https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeGrxWo_bzBt2K4__APgbL5Dg9G6Gr1evtSJ9fheoOZWLlttQ/viewform Thanks to all who do so! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny777 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 The change of colour on the right side of the building in the centre of the picture, and the missing downpipe above the 47. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I can see how I got 21....:-) I saw the loco nameplate had disappeared and the branding moved backwards as two separate things. I can see now the branding has obscured the nameplate. At least I can get some sleep now.... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Legend Posted July 6, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 6, 2020 Yep thanks for this guys . As it was the first time the family could meet up and in Scotland travel 5 miles I didn't see much on Saturday but dipped into the various highlights yesterday . Great idea and a job well done . Thanks for all the effort you put in. Actually I came back much less knackered than I usually do from an exhibition , and I haven't spent a penny ......Result! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted July 6, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 6, 2020 I really liked Phil's layout build, although I seemed to miss several sections - ballasting track for one. Will the series be available for repeat viewing at some stage ? 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For now, it seems all the videos from Phil's layout build are on the highlight section of the WoR website: https://www.world-of-railways.co.uk/wor/virtual-exhibition-highlights/day-2/?Query=&CategoryId=315 Obviously I can't answer how long they'll be on there, but the videos are easy to digest and get through in a short amount of time. I certainly enjoyed following along! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not chucking all that work away for just a weekend! 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny777 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Call me a bit slow, and I realise it was not strictly part of the virtual exhibits, but one of the videos I really liked was Pendon with hydraulics. I had never seen that before. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgman Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 It was a nice addition to the day and the Pendon videos one of my favourites of the day. Some very positive thinking going on behind the scenes which I certainly hope will pay dividends in years to come. G 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold beejack Posted July 6, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 6, 2020 Thanks for the hard work put in to make a great weekend. I have just done the survey, but was dispappointed not to be able to select Graham Foulston's Lakeside as he was missing from the layout feature list! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, that was because it was an 'extra' rather than a full layout feature. It was impressively done though! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators AY Mod Posted July 7, 2020 Author Moderators Share Posted July 7, 2020 Thank you to all most people who took part in the survey. I have closed it now as there was enough data to show what sort of features people enjoyed. It was evident it had run its course when some of the comments in the last question either miss the point entirely, are wholly unrealistic or just offensive. It's not that we just want to hear positives but some comments were just ridiculous, impossible and showed a complete lack of common sense. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ColinK Posted July 7, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 7, 2020 Hi, hope its OK for me to add my thoughts. Working and caring for two folk meant I had very little time to watch the show. From the bits I saw it was excellent and clearly a huge amount of work had gone in to making it. So really I was disappointed that I was able to see so little of it - that’s just the way life goes sometimes. From skimming through it there was nothing I would have not enjoyed watching and there are many sections I would have liked to watch in full. Hopefully the content will be available to watch again for quite some time - perhaps on the subscribers DVD. So a big thanks from me to everyone from putting the event together. It is really dissapointing to read the end of the previous post - everyone should be grateful for the work many people put in to give us a whole weekend of free model railway entertainment. Offensive and stupid comments only deter good people from putting on similar event is future. 6 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could have made it a bit longer given that I had 5 days of footage, but I think I picked the funniest moments; the rest was just me swearing at the sun as it blinded me! 2 hours ago, AY Mod said: ...some of the comments in the last question either miss the point entirely, are wholly unrealistic or just offensive. Sorry to hear that some are intent of spoiling it for the rest of us; such is the way of the anonymity of the internet, I guess! As I've said previously, the amount of effort that goes into putting on an event like this is immense; I don't think anyone can truly appreciate it if you haven't had to do something similar yourself. My only "problems" with the event were that: I was too busy making content to watch everything I have no photos to add to my report on the event; as it was a virtual show! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold SHMD Posted July 7, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 7, 2020 Well, this was very much like a "normal show" for me - I couldn't help but buy something! I have just received a new toolbox and tools, from Severn Models, in the best packaged parcel I've had since I got my last 24 from SLW. (I clicked on a link in one of the WoR Emails, and liked what I saw.) Kev. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium t-b-g Posted July 7, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 7, 2020 I have just had another look at the article on Buckingham and I was very pleased to see that it was my original text and not the heavily "edited" version which appeared in the magazine in 2018. The photos are much better on the screen too. I always thought the printed version was rather too dark and didn't do the colours on the layout justice. So many thanks Andy for giving the opportunity to see the text and photos in that version. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold SouthernRegionSteam Posted July 7, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 7, 2020 Just finished writing up my thoughts from the event. It's a little on the long side; and that's even after an effort to condense it to only 5 of my personal favourite layout appearances... Reflecting on the World of Railways Virtual Exhibition Now I had better get on and finish the farm diorama article ready for the September edition of BRM! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
