Little Brickhill all ready for setting up at the venue on Friday night. Track and all wheels cleaned and new sound chips fully tested.

 

Even got some time to finish off my 'Scooby Doo' Class 128 hopefully!

I think I skipped SC last year but the exhibition this year was much improved from recent ones. Very much a "local" exhibition but much much less cramped this year and much more enjoyable.

 

Well done to the car parking staff. It must have been hell in that weather.

Good show, nice layouts (and a good chat with Eltel), a few bargins to boot, and hardly got wet on the way home either. Thanks to all the organisers and exhibitors for another good show.
