      After 15 years away it was interesting to see what constitutes Manufacturers weathering closup. A Bachmann Deltic in amongst there display was enough to convince me we will be busy for along time yet.I hope you had a good show Barry your stand was like the bar in a really good pub ,four deep and queuque of eager punters.Long may it continue.
