RMweb Gold roundhouse Posted October 18, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 18, 2013 The last items for ROUNDHOUSE just packed into the car ready for the trip from Surrey. Also managed to get some stock in the car to run on APPLEDORE. I can't remember if I have had two layouts at the same show before. However Appledore is now in the custody of Phatbob who will be setting it up and operating it. Fingers crossed for a good run on the motorway network.

RMweb Gold roundhouse Posted October 19, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 19, 2013 It was a longbday yesterday with work in the morning then queues on the M6 meant that we had to go on A roads. Set the layout up last night then some liquid refreshments. Layout running welm. Very nice venue and good food. Many superb layouts so well worth a vist if you are in the area.

woodenhead Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Popped along this afternoon for a couple of hours. A very nice mix of layouts and scales, friendly operators with just the one smelly visitor. Well worth the £5 admission and plenty of free parking. For those whose interests lie in the 2mm premier scale, the Ivatt in BR livery and J39s have landed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
branchie Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Really enjoyed the show - a good mix of eras and scales. Bee Lane was very impressive. Excellent venue and £5 was good value. And I promised I wouldn't mention the telegraph pole incident on Roundhouse either ......... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium southern42 Posted October 20, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 20, 2013 I agree. Excellent show, superb layouts, good mix of trade and demos. Friendly and helpful exhibitors and a bright venue especially when the sun shone through the skylights. A couple of pics Finger Post 2000 Bee Lane Culm Walmington There are a few more here re backscenes: #373 Thanks to everyone for a great show even bumped into a few friends. And thanks to the caterers: the cheese on toast in the morning was a brilliant idea. Well done everyone and thanks for a great day out. Excellent job.

RMweb Gold TheSignalEngineer Posted October 20, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 20, 2013 Enjoyed to show yesterday, good value admission, plenty of parking, plenty of food available. Good standard across the layouts and bought enough stuff from helpful traders at good prices to justify the cost of getting there. Hornby Mag had Stove R at £5 off if you want to try to fix the chassis!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welsh Yorkie Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 As an exhibitor (Culm), I would like to add my appreciation for a well-run and friendly show. Attendances were good on both days as well -- that always adds to the sense of well-being! Well done to Warrington members and Geoff in particular.
