RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted November 21, 2009 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 21, 2009 Don't forget its this weekend, always a good show so come along and enjoy. I'm going tomorrow. Better than Warley and much nicer cakes! :)I usually can't resist the books on offer and you don't get totally crushed by hooligans at the layout viewing sections. If you come by ECML, you also get a chance to travel on your own train(s); that is East Coast, unless you happen to be on Hull Trains! 36E Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve1 Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 An excellent little show, when we found it. Maybe a bit of work needed on the signposting there... High standard of layouts and good to see Mr Sandshifters efforts in person. B) Extremely fine refreshments too! steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Directions on adverts/this site saying Town Hall in the town centre Square may help as the town centre is easy to find from the station? The post code might help for Sat Nav? Thought the show was VG and I just loved the loco's on Peak Quarry which were kindly brought out for me to inspect! Sincerely, PR 36E GC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted November 16, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 16, 2013 Can't find an ad for this year's show Saturday (today) 16th and Sunday 17th. so: my train set, St George's Yard, is having its first and probably only outing and so it would be lovely to see you if you are local.I also needs lots of advice about electrics so there's another excuse for you to attend! I'll post some pics if I get any. Thanks. Phil @ 36E Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
