Thanks Simon. Is the sales form referred to on the website missing? I can't see it to download. I should be there, but I can't find it either, so I would email Paul (using the email address there) and see what can do, he's the person in charge of it all.

St. Simon Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Hi, Well, Friday set has finished and it's looking like a great show, plus the cakes are coming in! Sorry, but no photos as too busy setting up! Come and visit tomorrow and see the show! Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Graham_Muz Posted October 31, 2014 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted October 31, 2014 Home after the initial set up tonight, a few exhibitors are still to arrive tomorrow but we are pretty much ready for the doors to open tomorrow at 10am tomorrow.

RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted October 31, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 31, 2014 Sounds like it's going to be crowded tomorrow - hope someone saves me a space in the car park. (think too that we'd better start with the cakes - are there layouts as well?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
81b Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 All ready for 10am, unless there's no chocolate cake, then we are off home....... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
petee19 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Just returned from this event which is local for me and I have to say what a superb exhibition it was. Well done to everyone involved in putting it together and if next years is as good it will be well worth waiting for. Thank you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANT Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Hello All Had a great time at the Wycombe show today, met lots of people that I had not seen for a while.

MatthewEWS Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I have to say what an absolutely fantastic show this is, I got back earlier and I have to say it was brilliant. Bring on next Year! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenrithBeacon Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 ... an absolutely fantastic show ... In full agreement with these sentiments, very good modelling, good stands and an excellent venue. I came away just after 3pm because I needed food not just cakes. I'm quite sure I would have stayed longer if I could have satisfied the inner dragon. Any chance of the show being over two days next year?

RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted November 1, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 1, 2014 As always an excellent show and congratulations to HWDMRS for producing another good 'un, a suitable and worthy swansong for Dave Fryer as the Exhibition Manager as I understand this was his final show before handing over the reins. The car park space was indeed there - in the overflow area but on a hard surface (sheer luck I was told!). As ever not just good organisation in a great venue but a good selection of good/top notch layouts plus a range of trade support. The highlight for me was probably some of the best steam sound I have ever heard on a layout - on Ian Mellors' Fourgig East, brilliant stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJS1977 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 The highlight for me was probably some of the best steam sound I have ever heard on a layout - on Ian Mellors' Fourgig East, brilliant stuff. And somehow I suspect you're not referring to the "Pug".... I've certainly never heard "Land of my fathers" on a DCC chip before! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium 2ManySpams Posted November 1, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 1, 2014 A big thank you to the club and kitchen folk from the Diesels in the Duchy crew. A very enjoyable show. Good access to the hall enabled a very quick pack up time and we we were on the road within 50mins. Thanks all and well done to West Cliff, loved the layout as soon as I saw it this morning.

station cat Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 There were no chocolate flapjacks That aside it was excellent. The layouts were almost all to an excellent standard and there was definitely something for pretty much everybody. There was a good range of traders. And the coffee cake was excellent.

RMweb Premium 2ManySpams Posted November 2, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 2, 2014 A (hopefully constructive) note to the exhibition team. We had lots of comments from the punters about the stability (or lack of) of the barriers. The feet were placed alternate inward and outward facing to prevent the barriers falling over. And we had many comments that the feet on the public side were a trip hazard. Those feet facing into the public also failed to stop the barriers tipping alarmingly when the public lent on the barriers. I think the posts and top rails are fine but the bottom foot/brace is too small. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Chris, Thank you for the comments, this has been noted and I know the brains behind the barriers are looking at solutions. Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
