RMweb Premium 70000 Britannia Posted October 12, 2009 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 12, 2009 Visited for the first time last year. There are a lot of good exhibitions around nowadays but this easily stood out even though, for me, it doesn't have much HO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eaton Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 New this year are discounted Advance Tickets. Full details are on our Website www.wiganfrm.org.uk As there is a separate entrance for ticket holders you will also by-pass the early morning entrance queue. This year there is no reason why anyone should not have gained entrance to Wigan at a discount. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Shedman5 Posted October 13, 2009 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 13, 2009 Well I plan to attend complete with shopping list which I categorize as my Xmas list good to hear about advance tickets will be looking at that later.

Poggy1165 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 There are some truly excellent layouts listed - despite my current near-total apathy I don't think I can resist such a wonderful exhibition. Kudos to the organisers! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a lot of good exhibitions around nowadays but this easily stood out even though, for me, it doesn't have much HO. Hi Dave, Although this year is now planned, we are always interested in any layouts on the exhibition circuit which we may have missed. If you have any suggestions for good HO layouts which you would like to see at Wigan, then please let us know either via this thread, PM (87023Velocity or Eaton) or contact us at the Wigan stand during the show.

PS All goods purchased have to be wrapped and put away till the 25th apart from an odd one or two! The stand you will want to visit is the Wigan Club Sales Stand, with over 400 items for sale, many ready to run locomotives from the major manufacturers, nearly brand new and in original boxes, should be a must for treating yourself without breaking the bank.....

Check out our website and the latest news to keep updated with everything about the show. www.wiganfrm.org.uk We have just updated our blog, on our website, we are trying to find out who travels the furthest to visit our show, Last year this was a gentleman from Falmouth, who travelled to the show and back again on the same day, so he thought the show was worth travelling that distance for. The sale of Advance Tickets proving very popular ( you gain entry to the show 10 minutes before the show opens, so avoid the crush, you get a seperate entrance, so no queues), with the addition of a 2 day ticket you can now attend on both days for just ??12 for adults and ??4 for children, so definatley worth the money. At present our further Advance ticket holder comes from Motherwell, so why not add you comment on our website BLOG. we would like to see if we can beat last year.....

Sam - WFRM ADMIN Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Advance Tickets - For those of you that have already requested Advance Tickets that have not yet recieved your tickets in the post, rest assured that we have recieved the completed forms. But have not yet posted the tickets out due to the postal strike. These will be sent out shortly. (Tickets have been posted Saturday 24th October) We are also keeping a record of who has bought tickets on the off chance that they do not arrive in time. And we are hoping to put some measure in place for the tickets to be bought online, and collected at the exhibition, should this dispute escalate. Please make sure you check the NEWS UPDATE regularly for updates on this situation.
