durham light infantry Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 With less than a fortnight to go I can't find any exhibitor listings. Anybody know some details, the expo Thirsk website is still showing the 2015 details... Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve1 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 There are a couple of amendments that need to be made to that list. Neither Margery Street or Duncan's Mine 2 will be appearing at the show. However, one layout that is not on the list that will be appearing is Network Rail Betton Street. See this thread for for details of the layout - http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/108907-network-rail-betton-street-chapter-14-in-operation/ steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwealleans Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Can't help on layouts, but Tom Foster is doing a wagon building demonstration and I'm bringing some of my 4mm stock to display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edwardian Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I infer from the OP that we are talking about the W/E of 30-31 July, but confirmation would be good. Can't help on layouts, but Tom Foster is doing a wagon building demonstration and I'm bringing some of my 4mm stock to display. I am hoping to start 4mm wagon building shortly, so would be particularly interested in any demonstrations/examples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwealleans Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Sunday July 31st. I don't know whether you read my workbench thread, but if there are any wagons you're particularly interested in, I'll make sure I pack them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edwardian Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Sunday July 31st. I don't know whether you read my workbench thread, but if there are any wagons you're particularly interested in, I'll make sure I pack them. Thank you. Having gone through your work bench content, they all look wonderful.. My primary interest is Pre-Grouping, and next comes Grouping, but I look forward to seeing whatever you bring..

Edwardian Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Thanks to all concerned for a very enjoyable day. I enjoyed meeting Jonathan, who had brought a couple of pre-Grouping wagons that I found particularly interesting, along with a lot of glorious teak from Grantham, and I also managed a chat with Alan Price of Outwell Village and Malcolm Relton of Seahouses before the family dragged me away.

jwealleans Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Ah, Outwell. One of my favourite layouts and I was obliged to sit looking at it for most of the day. It was nice to see Seahouses the right way up as well, having watched it being rewired most of the winter. Thanks to everyone who came and said hello or took an interest in the display. Edwardian, do follow up on my suggestion of contacting Dan Pinnock. I was right about the GER 6 wheelers, they were on his list from last July. You might also be interested in some of the items listed here and don't forget about Bill Bedford. I gather the attendance was up on last year and the organisers seemed pleased when I left this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edwardian Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I am glad the numbers were up. It seemed nicely busy to me. For those not attending, a taste of just some of what was missed: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
