About time for an update as not too many weeks away for our exhibition.

 

After a bit if jiggly around, got all the layouts in. For those that have been before, will know the main space being the church itself has four large columns holding up the balconies on each side. These do present a few issues! Anyway all part of the character of the building. The other two rooms are more conventional!

 

More details to follow.

If you are looking for refreshments after the show then you could go for a walk past the site of the L & B workshops to the Reform Inn which is the home of the Barhum Brewery in Reform St off Pilton Street. If you miss the pub which it's easy to do, you will end up at the Green Man which is also not bad.

Will be loading the car with Fisherton Sarum tomorrow evening from its current location ready for the drive down on Friday. My operating team and I are really looking forward to the show.

Banbury is going via Banbury on Friday as its the last day of the two signal boxes. Station closed over the weekend but we will be running trains on Saturday.

 

Then we will be heading to North Devon from there, hopefully paying a visit to Woody Bay in the afternoon.
