I can update this as we have just agreed a bus service from Tamworth to Statfold. It has been a long story!

 

Details will soon appear on both the Statfold website and the 009 Society website.

 Unfortunately the layouts North Rokeby and Wheal Kist are no longer able to attend.

 

However, I am very pleased to say that Creag Dhubh Summit by Ted Polet and Yurze Ore Mine by Lucien Eijdems will both now be appearing making, with De Niggende Saligheyd, three layouts from the Netherlands.

Wow! looks like it is going to be a must see show. Need to cram that into my calendar. 

Paul, nice photos, but don't give it all away!

 

On my list of shows to see.

 

By the way - there will be some narrow gauge action also tomorrow in MK - Silver Fox DCC. For instance on my layout Donnersbachkogel.... 🙂

If you’ve never been to Statfold believe me, you ain’t seen nothing yet! 😉


 

I’ve only been able to find photos of about half the layouts even with Mick Thornton’s help so plenty to discover on the day in the layout halls and the rest of the NG trust collection.
