Hello. I've just contacted our show manager who has heard nothing. Thanks for the heads up- he'll contact Jason tomorrow to find out what is going on there. Additional layouts with more details to follow- Martin Doe Lea (N- gauge) - why did I miss this off the list as it is the flier picture?

Bungus the Fogeyman Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Quote Stand 28 Victoria EM? Gauge, Dave Tailby You've obviously seen my trackbuilding Les!. As Paul Wade once said 'Dave models in all the popular 4mm gauges, OO, P4 and EM, usually all on the same layout!'

298 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) Something I did notice through the weekend was there weren't any hire vans in the car park, despite the presence of several large club layouts. Obviously this is an ongoing concern for both access to them and cost, but if this is the new future of exhibitions then we'll do just fine. There are also several videos of layouts at the show now appearing on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=cotgrave+model+railway&sp=EgIIAw%3D%3D Edited April 9 by 298 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks to all for the positive comments. Next year we are on April 5th and 6th. Les (club chairman) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
