peterl Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I will be there with the Barrowfleet team from Hull. Always a very good local show, and the 15 inch Cleethorpes Coast Light Railway is only a few miles down the road if you fancy a ride. Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve1 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I'll be on the DEMU stand on the Saturday, should anyone wish to say hello. (Or maybe sign up???) steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterl Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 ''Barrowfleet'' is being pulled out of storeage ready for the trip across the Humber on the 10th May. The North Bank mob have got their passports ready - I hope! Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nimbamoss Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share Posted May 2, 2013 Hi Peter, Look forward to seeing you there, Ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
draconusde Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Definitely coming, but still waiting on my idiot BFF to let me know what day he's coming over to go (I'm in Cleethorpes, he's coming from Sheffield). Really don't know why it takes him 5 days to answer a text..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr.king Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 If anybody is interested in resin casting methods (as per MRJ 222 for instance) and / or extensive RTR loco conversions then you should be able to find me by enquiry - try one of the Scalefour Group, or John Houlden, or the GCRS stand, or perhaps one of the members of the organising Cleethorpes club. I'll try to wear a name badge..... The Scalefour group is located in the room "furthest away and over to the right" (beyond the stage) as seen from the main entrance.

peterl Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 'Barrowfleet' has made it across the Humber and is in the back of my car to be delivered to the Show this afternoon. Look forward to seeing RM Web members over the weekend Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
david58041 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Roundtree Sidings was loaded into the van by 10am this morning. As I'm not travelling with layout I guess it's currently somewhere nearer Cleethorpes than its home in North Shieilds. David Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
draconusde Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Heres hoping for some great numbers today, you deserve it for the effort you put in every year. See you all in an hour or so Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

draconusde Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Had a great day, some really nice displays (although there did seem to be alot of 'N' gauge this year,. or was that just me), and a reasonable array of stands, I could have spent a whole lot more than I did in the 'Bargain Bins' right by the doors. On a personal note though, I have to say a big thank you to the time spent by the lady from the Cleeethorpes MRS for showing me her techniques for building trees, I'll certainly be giving it a go.

PLD Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 As I have come to expect of Cleethorpes, a nice friendly smaller show. A good selection of layouts (I was quite happy with the above average N-gauge content though all were of good quality) and better selection of trade than is usually expected at a show of this size - no big names but all the basics covered and reasonable prices. Well worth getting the passport stamped for the trip across the water. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nimbamoss Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 Many thanks for the positive feedback although the lady member mentioned above wil have a problem leaving the building if her head gets any bigger! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve1 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I enjoyed my day yesterday on the DEMU stand. It was a quality show and I hope the numbers picked up today. Cheers steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr.king Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 "Tucked away" in the smaller P4room at the rear of the show were these: Show debut for Ian Johnson's "work in progress" Tredethy Wharf. Gordon Luck's FISH DOCK ROAD. My own humble attempt at a "how I make resin castings" demo, which proved more popular than I had expected. Thanks to those who took an interest and BIG thanks to all those who helped to run the show and provide the exhibits. I really enjoyed the weekend - all the better for the sarcasm too. In fact it wouldn't be a complete show without it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RhBBob Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Yes, thanks to Nigel and his team for an excellent show. I particularly enjoyed the company of the P4 folks who provided much humour and a lot of information on Sunday. No, sorry, Ian J, Clive and Gordon, I shall be keeping what Andrew Fisher (remember Tag Models?) called 'that Austrian rubbish'. :jester: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stannyblade Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Wish I had heard about this a fortnight ago would have come along from Sheffield. Next year for sure Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
