davefrk Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Hi all, just to let people know. The annual Model Rail Scotland exhibition website is here - http://www.modelrail-scotland.co.uk/index.html Hopefully the link works, it is a new site still under construction due to ... well we won't go into that here. The exhibition is chock full of interesting railways from Z to Gauge 1 with (my own interests) 4 EM and one P4 layout. Hopefully this exhibition will be as successful and enjoyable as previous ones. Oh, and 'Alloa' will be making a welcome return with new stock and more practiced operators. Yeah right.... Will post more details soon.

pete55 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Sorry Judge, but the long range forecast is for snow on Stainmore.... Dave Franks Oooooo, er..... which Stainmore though?! Stainmore (EM) will be travelling via Stainmore...... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed-farms Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Oooooo, er..... which Stainmore though?! Stainmore (EM) will be travelling via Stainmore...... If it gets stuck at the top they could assemble the layout there to entertain fellow motorists. Could be a first - a model of a location in the middle of nowhere exhibited at the exact spot it depicts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim49 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Just a quick bump to remind everyone that it is only 6 weeks until Model Rail Scotland 2013. Don't know if Dave Franks will be up to speed by that time though. Jim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Natalie Graham Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Hi all, just to let people know. The annual Model Rail Scotland exhibition website is here - http://www.modelrail-scotland.co.uk/index.html Hopefully the link works, it is a new site still under construction due to ... well we won't go into that here. Is it just me or is the is the site not working properly? When I click on the links for the exhibitors I still get the big white panel with the index and sponsors on over the top of the list, obscuring (I presume) a significant part of it.

Jim49 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Hi Natalie, I can't see a problem with the site. If I click on to the links, the white panel remains at the left of the page but doesn't seem to obscure any of the information being displayed. Hasthis just happened to you today or has it been ongoing for a while? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davefrk Posted January 11, 2013 Author Share Posted January 11, 2013 Hi Natalie, seems to be working for me. Can you try the compatibility button on the top of your screen somewhere, it usually works for me when I have a problem with a website. Dave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davefrk Posted January 11, 2013 Author Share Posted January 11, 2013 Your prolific build rate is explained at last. Probably got Hawkwind on in the workshop too! What prolific build rate? I haven't finished anything for myself in ages, been making buffers for all you lot over the past 3 years. So there! Dave Franks. And it's not Hawkwind on, it's Jo Bonamassa's Sloe Gin just finishing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkerr Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Just three N gauge modern image layouts, and still no DCCLooks like I won't be going againI've not been to TINGS for three years now, so most likely to be attending that instead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewart Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Just three N gauge modern image layouts, and still no DCC Looks like I won't be going again I've not been to TINGS for three years now, so most likely to be attending that instead Three "contemporary", one "modern image" and one undefined as "UK". So maybe 50% of the N gauge is "modern" and loads of modelling in other scales to enjoy. None of the exhibiting layouts are defined as DC or DCC so I'm not sure what you mean by "no DCC"?
