SDJR7F88 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Always a great little show this one! I'll be attending with my OO micro Fry's Somerdale. The website seems to have been updated with full details and a downloadable show guide with all layouts and stands set to attend. https://www.sdrt.org/edington-model-railway-exhibition/ 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Gilbert Posted January 7, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 7, 2023 I popped in today - a very enjoyable few hours - if you can visit tomorrow I would. For a "small" show it had a very good selection of high quality modelling presented by operators who were happy to talk and share knowledge including our very own "Sheepbloke" with his rather fetching dippy layout. I'd spent two days next to Bridgwater 1904 at Fareham in September but at Edington it was much more accessible and easier to see and photograph. My album of all my quick phone fots is here. Click on the picture for the link: I also noted there was a considerable selection of cakes but rather foolishly I opted not to indulge....in retrospect it was an error....I should have bought a cake and consumed it while watching some of the excellent S&D footage on DVD being presented in a side room....

RMweb Premium DLT Posted January 9, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 9, 2023 Excellent photos Chris, thanks very much. I went along on Saturday, specifically to see Bridgewater North, and I wasn't disappointed, its superb! And hats of to Trevor and his team for bringing it all the way from Lancashire. The show as a whole was very good, with a nice variety of layouts. I was particularly taken with Fry's Somerdale, a beautifully conceived view of a level crossing; and its got me thinking! I went in the company of John.C, of Narrow Gauge & Industrial fame, and we DID indulge in the cakes... Many thanks to the organisers, see you next time. Cheers, Dave. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meant to come back for a more detailed look, but ran out of time! Couple of quick questions if that's ok, do you have any more West-Country shows coming up? And is there a topic/website for the layout? I've watched some of your videos, but do you have a photo gallery? Thanks very much, Dave.T Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I do have a topic in here regarding the layout, which can be seen here; Sadly, I believe most of the images of the build were lost when RMweb went down a while back, but recent posts are present, plus all the videos of the build of course. As for shows, there are no more currently planned, but I might try and get it in Wincanton later this year, but will have to see. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
