Nedrahn Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Its coming around the that time of year for the Canterbury show. Hopefully this year we won't get quite so much snow! A list of layouts and traders can be found here : http://www.ccmrs.ic24.net/Page_4x.html More details to follow ... It's always an enjoyable show, but I thought this year (2013) the CCMRS deserved extra praise for managing to fill the gaps on the Saturday at short notice. It was a great shame about the Sunday. Much as I LOVE snow, I sincerely hope it stays away until after the show in 2014! I think those who organise the shows we all attend often don't get the credit they deserve for all the effort. Therefore I'd just like to say to everyone who put on a model railway exhibition in 2013, thank you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
