RMweb Gold Savoyard Posted May 16, 2013 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted May 16, 2013 Exhibition Update - 15th May 2013 We have now finalised the DCC Seminar timetable. As we have two DCC demo layouts and Simon Howard with his DCC Clinic, we have reduced the seminars to just two this year as visitors will be able to see ongoing demo's throughout the day at the stands, and they will be more than happy to answer your DCC questions. Seminars1100 - 1145 Introduction to DCC - Peter Crichton, LYDCC 1330 - 1415 DCC Sound - Ian Bishop (Legomanbiffo) There will also be on going DCC Demo's throughout both days on Computrains and the DCC Demonstration Layout, and along with Simon Howard they will all be happy to answer your DCC questions.

RMweb Gold Savoyard Posted May 17, 2013 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted May 17, 2013 Just arrived back from setting up and nearly all is in place except for some who will be arriving in the morning. I may be biased but I think we have a cracking line up this year. The Computrains Demo Layout looks very impressive and is a must those considering using Computer Control. So hopefully we will see you there. Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
