Andy Y Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 I shall be there with Keyhaven for the weekend, apart from that there are some really top quality layouts and IMO the best exhibition in the Midlands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Traxson Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Great thanks shall definitely going now, will you be going your self? I shall be going myself at some point over the weekend. In fact but for family health problems I would be there as a trader/demonstrator splashing resin as I have been for something like ten years, as a visitor I started visiting when it was still in the hall in Stafford itself, its just got steadily better and larger!

Ursa Major Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Might volunteer to take the wife out shopping for the day. She could have a good look around the trade stands, while you're looking at the layouts, and buy you a surprise present by way of thanks for taking her out for the day.... OK, maybe best leave her at home then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I might also be seen at some stage helping on Mike Wild's Bay Street. Muz: smashing, glad you'll be there - must have a chat about a book.... Everyone: I'll be there all weekend helping on 'diesels in the duchy' smashing layout started 12 months ago by Damian Ross - amazing what he's acheived in such a short time. It's the layouts first outing so there's still much to do but if there's folks reading this into em, dcc and cornish diesels in the late 80s / early 90s then come and say hello. If you've seen crimson road in the feb railway modeller then come and see that in the flesh too. As well as a whole load of quality railway trade and layouts there's normally a fantastic sweet shop stand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisf Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I'm hoping to attend on Saturday but not if it snows heavily! Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
5 C Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Snow or not, I intend to be there. I'm making a weekend of it, so will be overnighting in Stafford on Friday, ready for an early start in the morning before going off to a charity ball in Birmingham on Saturday evening. It's been nearly 25 years since I last went to the Stafford exhibition - in those days held at GEC's Stychfields Hall. Before that it was the annual pilgrimage to the then Borough Hall for the exhibition that I attribute to getting me into railway modelling in the first place - anyone remember SRC's Meyrick Town layout? It's great to see how my "local" exhibition has clearly grown into one of the country's premier events and I'm looking forward to seeing what's on offer.

Markmiller2008 Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Hi All I Shall be attending , After a jaunt around with a West Mids Day Ranger i shall be making use of the free bus service from the station to visit the show for a couple of hours before going off for more wanderings with the day ranger. Never been before but it sounds to be a good quality show. Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
