Eurospoor 2018: 26 year! An edition with emphasis on foreign layouts!
9 - 11 november 2018, Jaarbeurs Utrecht, NL
Sunday 11 november free entrance for children under the age of 12 with e-ticket
For 26 years, Leo and Chitra Hendriksen are the driving force behind the Eurospoor train. Started in a small hall
in the local town of Zaandam it slowly grew to become an international event for hobbyists coming to the Jaarbeurs
from far and wide. The name 'Eurospoor' for the event came almost by itself as the borders would open in 1993, making
it easier for foreigners to cross national borders with goods and layouts without much formalities.
Now for the 26th time Model railway buffs should be getting ready for Europe's largest model railway event, EUROSPOOR,
which takes place this year in the Jaarbeurs (trade fair centre) in Utrecht, the Netherlands on 9, 10 and 11 November 2018.
A surface area of 20,000 square meters will offer visitors the chance to view over 60 model railways belonging to clubs from
the Netherlands as well as other countries, extensive model train collections, working miniatures smaller than your little
finger (Z-gauge) and also enormous specimens weighing many kilograms each (gauge 1), model-making demonstrations,
stands of representatives and retailers, a model railway market of appr. 1000 meter length where train-lovers offer their
used trains, accesories and collectors' items for sale or exchange.

Hillingdon Railway Modellers - Test Track Open Day
By Solderpete,
A friendly get-together and good chance to run your models.
The refreshments are pretty good too.

Lincoln district model railway exhibition
By Dagworth,
A well presented local club show with around a dozen layouts in 2, 4 and 7mm scales. The O gauge layout was actually one of the smallest layouts present.
Layouts were a mix of entertaining fiction through to well researched models of real places and places that had previously had railways but modelled as though those lines had survived the Beeching cull. A good mix of steam era and more modern diesel content too. One exhibit showed the true definition of a tail chaser, the train missing it's own tail by about 2 millimetres.
I was there helping with a layout presented as a work in progress that got quite a lot on interest showing how a layout was built.
A good social and meal on the Saturday evening in a local pub added to a great all-round weekend.
The show was VERY busy both days!
My thanks to the organising club and to @Clive Mortimore for letting me be his wingman for the weekend

Lincoln district model railway exhibition
By Grampus,
A really enjoyable local show. I've just come back from spending a couple of hours there this afternoon. Friendly people and some great modelling. My personal favourite layout was 'Horncastle', which ticked a lot of (mostly blue and yellow with Railfreight grey and red) boxes for me. Well worth popping along tomorrow if you have a few minutes to spare. Thanks to all concerned for a nice afternoon out.
All the best,
Paul
