Another fantastic show and well worth a visit and if you need some road vehicles for your layouts make sure you pay a visit to my Dad's stall as he has been invited for the first time this year. Good luck to the organisers again this year.

Only a week to go until this excellent event. Looks like a good line up of layouts again.

 

Hi Andy

Yes, not long to wait now. We have a super mix of N, O, EM and OO plus demonstrators and traders. Throw in a really interesting museum and cask ales and hopefully, everyone who attends should have an enjoyable day

Thanks to everyone who has looked at this topic. I am just in the process of ordering some nice weather !!!!!!!

I look forward to meeting our visitors on the day. I hope sixteen 12by 10s has a bit of luck in getting a driver.

An excellent show once again, congratulations to all involved.

 

My "review" blog entry can be found via the blogs page if anyone is interested. I can't seem to paste the link on here today.

 

Thanks Andy for your nice comments. Thank you to all of the exhibitors, traders and demonstrators and to all of the public who visited our show. We had a great day, but not without a few hiccups along the way. Fortunately, these were all resolved prior to opening and even the weather was kind to us. One of our visitors was from Scarborough, which just goes to show the power of advertising. The planning has already started for next year, but in the mean time, I am looking forward to Andyram's show at Weston on Trent on the 15th November.
