I note, with interest, that this will be the last occasion on which the Stafford and Rochdale exhibitions clash. I have visited the Rochdale exhibition in the past but must confess that, for a variety of reasons, the last time I did so was when they had 51218 outside on a low loader. Subject to my health and the weather I may consider a visit in November.

 

Cheers, John.

Good grief John, that was some years ago in the days when we were at the Town Hall. it was on its way to the Worth Valley at the time and one of the owners Richard Greenwood was a founder member of the RMRG. Why not do both shows the same weekend John :) quite a few peple do!

 

Its always been a shame that we have clashed as both shows are well worth the visit, concentrating on the quality end of exhibition layouts, neither of us accept duff layouts (thats not a ban on layouts featuring class 47s) The other good thing is we can now reciprocate visits with each clubs layouts' and it has also removed a slight stumbling block to featuring a certain large MMRS layout at Stafford dry.gif (most of the operating crew are members of the RMRG as well!)

 

heres to the success of both shows!

I'll drink to that. Must check out the contact details for a couple of layouts set in the Duchy of Cornwall.

Good Idea Andy. However, those that are able to visit both shows the same weekend tend not to have been members of Stafford Railway Circle since 1961.

Stafford Railway Circle Exhibition News

Good News for all attending the Stafford Railway Circle Exhibition over the weekend of 5th & 6th Feb is that we have doubled the amount of car parking and that the car park over the road from the show ground will be open both days.

 

We will also be operating a free preserved bus service from the station both days

Just to confirm that Damian (Indomitable026), John (Old Gringo) and I (2ManySpams) will all be there on a demo stand.

 

This year we'll be taking and working on parts of John's new American layout "Once upon a time in the West". Between us we'll be laying some track, doing a spot of wiring, some basic scenics and I'm guessing a lot of talking!

 

Feel free to introduce yourselves and have a chinwag. Also happy to talk about our Cornish projects "Diesels in the Duchy" and "Treneglos".

 

Look forward to seeing you there! (Just follow the trial of polystyrene bits....)

Things hotting up for the show now. The two new club layouts 'Seagone' and 'Middle Cubley' are both looking good, ready for their debut at the show, and the old favourite 'Littleton Parkway' is getting its final titivation for its final appearance at the Stafford show. Following this year's exhibition appearances it is planned to retire it so that the new club finescale OO layout 'Whiteacres' can be completed.

 

My battery drill is on charge ready for constructing the exhibitor's refreshment area on the Friday of the set-up!

Almost forgot another layout making its first appearance at Stafford next weekend is my test layout which has now now had some extra scenic treatment from fellow club member Hadley Taylor.

 

It is called Charles Street Sidings and is a shunting layout based on "Inglenook Sidings" running as a Engineers yard with Dutch Livery wagons

 

This time using the more up to date Kadee couplings

 

Was 5ft long but I believe Hadley has added another fiddle yard
