Jim Martin Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Well this is good news (the venue doesn't make much difference to me because the church and Merchants' are both easily walkable from my house). I don't go to many exhibitions, but I've missed attending the ones that I normally do; so I'll be there. Jim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Phatbob Posted September 4, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 4, 2021 Santa Barbara all set and ready to go last. I had a quick look round last night and it looks like a really good show. :-) Do come along, it's been a LONG time since the last one. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinWales Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Went to this excellent show yesterday morning and spent a happy three hours catching up with all the usual suspects. Great balance of layouts from Chris and the team. Superb!! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a measure perhaps of where some of us find ourselves now, that I look upon photos like that (folk packed tightly together in an indoor space) with a mixture of envy and horror. Hope you had a good show over the weekend, anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ardbealach Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Well done to Chris and the Liverpool MRS team for a great show. Excellent selection of layouts and good to see so many old faces after eighteen months of lockdown. [Alisdair] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephenwolsten Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I am interested in collating information from recent shows about attendance, compared with pre-Covid years. The aim would be to help inform other clubs about what to expect or plan for when reaching decisions. Can you quantify anything from the Liverpool Show please e.g. the percentage change in attendance compared with the last equivalent show? Thanks in anticipation.

The show was enjoyable and despite travelling in by Miseryrail and out via Lime Street the Covid-19 app on my phone didn't ping and I survived intact.

Missed you but did get a good look at the layout when Her Ladyship was operating. I knew the area where it is meant to represent without having to read the stuff at the side. It just oozed Black Country 1960-ish to me. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember that name, although I have heard the incident described as a shunt too far or a long train up the short neck. It was sometimes a pint too far in the Olive Branch or Vauxhall BRSA Club. When Reg Lowe became Area Manager at Saltley he visited the club. He was introduced to Stacker and the Club Secretary told Reg that if he wanted to know the history of the name to look in the staff files. His would be easy to find because it was the thickest in the cabinet as he had got the best Form 1 collection in the depot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
