gismorail Posted April 27, 2016 Author Share Posted April 27, 2016 Just a quick update on the above show. I have had confirmation from David Jones the General Manager of the Bala Lake Railway of the following confirmed layouts and Traders. So far confirmed are the following layouts: Melin Llechi 16mm SM32 Afon Adit ‘0’-9 Matthew’s Yard ‘0’ Beaumont Ville ‘00’ Pen y Graig 5.5mm scale / 12mm gauge Porth Kernow ‘N’ Roche Junction G Scale Dalton Le Dale ‘00’ Gorne and Dunette On30 Cwmbach P4 Chester Northgate Shed ‘00’ Dogfriol 009 Schmal ‘H0’ Walt’s Playmobile +1 to confirm Traders / Societies John Sutton Books Andrew Neale Books Ffestiniog Railway Models / DVDs / Promotion Abc model railways Models Corris Rly Soc 2nd hand models / railway items Maid Marian Fund Fundraising Blackham Transfers Transfers Seems to be a good mixture of Layouts considering that this is the first time the Railway have put on a show such as this . If you are in the area or are visiting that weekend please support this event, as the North Wales area is not region that has many shows and it would be good to see this become a regular yearly exhibition. I believe that the Transport Festival is well worth a visit in itself followed a train ride along the lake and a vintage bus ride to the show.

peterl Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 I think that the dates are wrong. If it is this weekend then the dates should be Saturday 30th April, Sunday 1st May and Monday 2nd May. Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gizmo rail is giving us advance warning that it's coming up at the end of the month (also a bank boliday weekend) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
