Northpoint Posted May 12, 2012 Author Share Posted May 12, 2012 As posted elsewhere, we have new (professional) catering this year - my wife Liz was very wary to do it again after half the visitors and exhibitors were struck down at Sutton Coldfield 2 weeks ago! Anyway, it means that hot food will be available including bacon sandwiches and the like from early on. All the layouts have confirmed they will be coming but still waiting for confirmation from at least one trader. Raffle prizes have been donated by Model Junction, Walthers, Team Track Trading, Coastal DCC and LSWR Models. Here's looking forward to a super day for all.

RMweb Premium Mike Bellamy Posted May 12, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 12, 2012 Posters etc were well on show at Derby show today... Thanks for the mention about Derby - the show's on again tomorrow and we have 3 American layouts there plus lots more to see - remember that a good model is a good model regardless of scale, gauge or location Harrington HO Murrayville Yard HO Piedmont Lines O Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northpoint Posted May 13, 2012 Author Share Posted May 13, 2012 I beleive one of those is at Trent Valley show, but don't ask me which! and one is something of a rariety - 'O' gauge USA outline , with sound, DCC etc, literally all bells and whistles. Jez (Richard New) is bringing his successor to Harrington - Lawley st. This will be its first outing. If it's anyhting like Harrington, it will be worth seeing. I spoke to the other 2 at Derby yesterday with a view to them coming to the next Trent Valley show. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
