andyram Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 I am delighted to reveal that the excellent "Steam on the Cambrian" will be at this year's show. One of a number of RMWeb layouts to feature. This layout was built by Dukedog of this parish! More layout reveals soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyram Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 I am really pleased to announce two more RMWeb members have confirmed that their layouts will be joining us for this year's show. Nick Quinn (doctor quinn) will be returning for a second year, this time with his layout Industrivej" and Will J's Severn Valley based N gauge "Victoria Bridge" layout is also to attend. With my own Skaleby West set to be exhibited in a new extended form that is 4 RMWeb members already on the confirmed list. I know of another 5 RMWeb members who are likely to attend - we are just awaiting final confirmations. We could have our largest ever gathering of RMWeb members in the event's short history. Who else wants to join the fun? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Dava Posted July 3, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 3, 2015 Andy deserves huge credit for starting and getting continuity for the future of the Weston on Trent show. It was great to exhibit there in 2012-13, a really friendly local school show. I was out of the country last year but who knows for the future? Hope all goes well for 2015.

andyram Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 Thanks Dava. Things are progressing with this year's show. I hope to have more announcements regarding layouts soon. This week I have successfully been promoted onto the school's senior management team, effectively taking on a shared deputy headship from September. That should bode well for the future of the show. We already have a firm date for 2016. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyram Posted September 24, 2015 Author Share Posted September 24, 2015 The show is coming together very well - with as many as 20 layouts coming this year. This includes several RMWeb members and a new "interactive zone" featuring layouts that are available for the general public to try out. There are some new traders this year too. All layouts and traders will be listed in due course. We are still on the hunt for a narrow shelf type layout to fill a gap in a corridor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
