jcm@gwr Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Don't know whether it's common knowledge but 'Britannia' will be departing from Kings Cross at 0930 on Sunday! EMUs take about 15 minutes to get to Alexandra Park as a guide time. UK Mainline Steam 2014 website refers. According to my sources, it's 70013 Oliver Cromwell.

RMweb Gold Huw Griffiths Posted March 21, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 21, 2014 Phil Parker will be at the show, displaying the BRM Project layout 'Edgeworth' from the January, February and March issues of the magazine. He'll also be showing some of his other projects that have appeared in the magazine, including his new 'Pizza Layout' Will he add mozarella as a special for Ally Pally? Probably not - but some people might attach credence to unsubstantiated rumours, about old Lima rolling stock wheels being used to cut the "pizza". * I could not possibly comment. (* Back in the 70s and 80s, some of the wheels supplied fitted to RTR locomotives and rolling stock had flanges so deep that some people started calling them "pizza cutters". Certain Lima items were notorious for this.) Huw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pacific231G Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I expect to be helping out with the SNCF Society stand on Sunday - mainly in the afternoon- so do drop by and say hello. I might even have an RMWEB badge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Simon Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Hi, Just this minute decided to go, probably on my own at this stage, on the Sunday, even if it does mean a start at silly o'clock at Fareham Station! Looks like a good show and will be nice to see some RMweb guys! Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

southernelectric Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Seemed strange without Hornby and Simon Kohler there today. I bet....even though Hornby is a sponsor right? Certainly I thought it odd when I heard they would not be exhibiting (as I mentioned, nay questioned in an earlier post)...even though they are still listed on the exhibitor list. I think you'll find Simon might be walking around at some point tomorrow :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
