RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted January 20, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 20, 2013 On the exhibition website, you've put Black Country Blues in the OO Gauge section, not the EM Gauge one. Geoff will have to do a quick re-gauge !! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRMExhibitions Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Can you give any times that the Exhibition Bus from Doncaster Railway to the Racecourse runs? The bus is a free shuttle service so will run on a continuous basis from 8.30am – 5.15pm on Saturday and Sunday. The bus stop will be just outside the main entrance of the railway station.

ThaneofFife Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 i used the shuttle bus and seem to recall the frequency is approx one every 20 to 30 mins but i dont think its a set timetable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewartingram Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 If you miss the shuttle bus (or long q's) there is a service bus from the adjacent bus station/Doncaster Interchange direct to the roundabout by the racecourse. From memory it is the 66, but should be easy to find it in the bus station. Stewart Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brittannia Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Thanks to all who replied about my enquiry about the "shuttle bus" and to Stewart for the information on the public bus. John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Y Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I'd like to chuck in a personal reminder that the deadline for pre-booking tickets is this Friday morning at 9.00 am I do hope you can come along to the show; I'm chewing fingernails on several counts, BCB's debut, a talk to do in the lecture theatre, spin some plates around the Tuition Zone and be available on the BRM stand. If you pre-book you can get in for a quieter look at the layouts 30 minutes ahead of main entry and less queuing -to pre-book please go here - https://www.model-railways-live.co.uk/Exhibitions/5-12/The_Festival_of_British_Railway_Modelling/Ticket_Booking Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
