Having had its debut at Swindon I have to say that Ian Morris has built a cracking N Gauge model of Headingley - and he has time to add more detail before its next showing at our show.

 

Alan smith has been busy and Everingham will be debuting as a roundy roundy 3mm layout.....

I always enjoy this show.  Most years I'm there on the Sunday morning manning the Middleton display.

 

Blatent plug steam trains operate on both Saturday & Sunday as it's usually Halloween weekend.  Ghost trains not in the railway sense.....

Mike has posted this in his small suppliers sction BUT if you know where the attached is please let Mike know asap or perhaps it can returned to Mike at the Leeds Show?
 

"Towards the end of a reasonably successful Manchester show we suffered the theft of one of our display models. This is the first loss we ahve had in 11 years of exhibiting. The model in question had been deliberately targeted, it was my PWM650 RH 0-6-0DE, fully finished with DG couplers fitted and a working lubricator drive. I do hope the thief was extremely disappointed to find that it isn't actually powered.

If anyone does happen to see such a model anywhere, please let us know.

Michael and Judith Edge"

In preparation for the show we ventured into the depths of Temple Works last night to extract the handrails and uprights... it was nowhere near as bad as the basement in Armley ..and a loading bay on the ground floor... heaven!
