Now that you have nice, new fresh diaries for 2012 don't forget to add in for Saturday and Sunday, 3rd and 4th March 2012.

Here also is my sketch map of central Romsey, indicating the car parks and public transport stations.

I have been made aware that the Romsey Signal Box Project will also be open on the weekend of the Model Railway Exhibition, so there is the opportunity to visit the signal box while in Romsey for the Exhibition.

 

The location of the Signal Box Project is shown on the sketch map in my previous posting.

Huge thanks to all the exhibitors, traders and visitors that supported our show this weekend. Over a thousand visitors came through the doors over the two days with a surprising number braving the rain, wind, snow and hail this morning!

 

We were fortunate to have eleven very fine layouts on display again this year so thank you to everyone involved with Purbeck, Longmoor, Holm, Feltwell Road, Redford Junction, Zweibrucken, Weiswasser, Aldermouth, Strabane, Kuppla Yard and Chewton Mendip.

 

Regards and many thanks,

 

Patrick

Must add my thanks too for a great, well organised and well attended show. Must agree with Dave about the catering - first time ever that gluten free food has been provided and I made the most of it!! Club members were most helpful which was much appreciated.

ASHLYN will be available for next year!
