MRDBLUE17 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Hi Everyone, DEMU showcase is fast approaching (3rd and 4th June at Burton town hall) and John and the team have pulled together a fantastic line up of D&E layouts, traders and demos. This is the must attend show for all D&E Modellers and even if your interests are out with this period the quality of modelling on display will still be of interest to all Modellers. As current acting chair of the society I'd like to wish you all a warm welcome to the show and hope to see many of you there. All the best Mark 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick G Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Do members have too bring their membership cards? As a newbie to DEMU I am not sure of the requirements. Tony If you bring your valid membership card you will get in for £5 rather than £8. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

valleymodeller Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 We'll see you there then Tony ? . Brian R Hope so , just bought my Senior Railcard(!), and looking forward to a cross country rail trip, £27 return apparently. It's 152 miles each way driving so cost would be double the rail fare. I am looking forward to it. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TEAMYAKIMA Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) Although Twickenham MRC's new OO gauge D&E layout (EASTGATE) is still in its early stages it would be nice if we could bring it along to a future DEMU SHOWCASE - maybe 2018?? It's a simple project designed to show the club's commitment to D&E modelling, thereby attracting more D&E modellers so that our next D&E layout can be bigger and more ambitious. You can see details of EASTGATE here on RMweb .... http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/117737-eastgate-modern-day-00-gauge-terminus-by-twickenham-mrc/ Edited May 18, 2017 by TEAMYAKIMA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobby (John) Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Due to the General Election on the 8th June, Burton on Trent town hall have informed the Showcase team that one of the rooms used for the Showcase event will not be available for use. This means that we have unfortunately had to postpone the following two layouts until next year: 1/. Deadmans Lane by Mick Bryan 2/. Alderford by Carl Bowden. ( TBC at present ) This is a major disappointment to us and of course to the layout owners. As you can imagine we are not happy about this situation and we thank the layout owners for their understanding in the matter, and look forward to welcoming them in 2018. The premier Diesel & Electric show will still have many eye watering layouts to view, so come along... you won't be disappointed! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
