RMweb Gold PaulRhB Posted October 23, 2017 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted October 23, 2017 I can confirm that there will be at least one Great Western branchline terminus there.Andy. Llanfair Caerinion (009) I think you ought to really confuse them and get Eddie & Rachael's Devil's Bridge attached as the other end of the line 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold PaulRhB Posted October 23, 2017 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) Mmm VoR tanks through Corris, that'd be fun I think that's called modifying the loading gauge with extreme predjudice;) Edited October 23, 2017 by PaulRhB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Joseph_Pestell Posted October 24, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 24, 2017 Wimborne is becoming quite a centre for model railway events. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold PaulRhB Posted October 24, 2017 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted October 24, 2017 To be honest it has been for years, the only new show is Ray Heard's one the Wimborne Railway Society has consistently been the biggest group in the area for years. Although the main club show is only every two years they have done quite a lot of smaller shows in the area including supporting this open day.

asmay2002 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 The website describes it as a "members" open day. Does that mean you have to be a member to attend? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold PaulRhB Posted October 24, 2017 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted October 24, 2017 (edited) No it's an open day for people to see what the group does. Go with the poster above It says Wessex Narrow Gauge Modellers welcome you to a Open Day, rather than members day Edited October 24, 2017 by PaulRhB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatC Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) Many thanks to Paul for posting the open day information above. Plenty of info on our website but just to wet your apetites further here is a list of the layouts that are currently due to attend: Vale Quarry (009) John Bruce Hillbrow (009) Steve Fackrell Hirson Bellevue (Hoe) Howard Coulson Llanfair Caerinion (009) Andy Cundick Woolthorpe Light Railway (009) Jim Owers L& B Freem009 modular project (009) Paul Steedman Ryedown Lane (009) Patrick Collins The Brickworks (014) Arthur Budd St Mary's (016.5) Julian Evison Avalon Brickworks (016.5) Howard Martin Display of micro layouts by Toby Hollins-Jones The 009 Society sales and recycling stand will be present as will Howard Martin's Avalon Line range of 7mm kits. A mix of one or two old favourites and some new projects. Just to re-iterate what Paul said; although it's an open day rather than an exhibition it is indeed open to anyone that would like to come for a modest £3 admission charge. As well as Castlefinn's Llanfair Caerinion in 009 there will also be Julian Evison's St Mary's in O16.5 which also follows W&LLR practice. So that's two GWR NG layouts (we're not proud!)

PenrithBeacon Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I popped in for an hour or so fairly late in the afternoon and was most impressed although Llanfair Caerinion (which I think I've seen before), the L& B Freem009 modular project and St Mary's (a pun on Llanfair?) were the standouts.
