andyman7 Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 I'm glad I picked up that this has moved as I have a flyer picked up at the Vintage show earlier this year advertising the old venue at the location. Will there be a notice at the originally-advertised venue to redirect people? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Hamblin Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 The Croydon Society of Model Engineers will be displaying some larger exhibits and it will be our first appearance at a model railway exhibition for many years. We also plan to have a 3D printer demonstration on our stand. Steam Test 1 by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr Regards, Dan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Invicta Informant Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Really good show. Pretty good selection of layouts (Rossiter Rise was my favourite). The new venue is clean and airy, with plenty of natural light that is not overpowering. Worth the trip. Thank you to the Beckenham & West Wickham MRC for another good show. 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Hamblin Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 There was a great selection of layouts on show and the BWWMRC did well to make the (seemingly) seamless move to a new venue. We had a great time sharing our model engineering hobby with the visitors, first time I've put together a display too. Thankfully lots of positive comments received 😊 CSME Display by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr Regards, Dan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbe Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 I found it a very enjoyable show as an exhibitor and I like the new venue with its airy and bright space. Thanks to Alex fromthe host club I was able to have a look around at other layouts and agree the standard was high. My own 009 layout, Selborne, behaved reasonably well and it was great talking to lots of participants. Thank you, Dawn, for the lovely piece of video.
