the white/green one is suitably hideous
I'm sure you'll have driven past it's old home a thousand times if that counts as an excuse.

Though I don't go a lot on the white
The Cream Soda can is top of my list as a local loco that I used to see most days on a rail trip.
I can recall the smell of Four Ashes right now just looking at the pic.

It'll be twelve years in a couple of weeks, may get a day off one day. 😁
28 minutes ago, Oldddudders said:My only concern is that even Warners only have so many willing horses at their disposal, and I fear that while the organisation will be a success - and widespread trade support is wonderful news - running a web forum, editing a magazine and organising an exhibition of this high order is going to flog those horses within an inch of....
They shoot horses don't they? However, we do have a whole department very used to holding and administrating large indoor and outdoor events.

I seem to have the same issue, using Safari on an iPhone
That should be sorted for you now.

Whilst undoubtedly good news and still early days, is there an intention to continue to invite specialist societies as occured with the Warley event?
For full disclosure I am both the Exhibition Stand Organiser for the Signalling Record Society and a member of Warley MRC.
We'll need to start the foundations with the big building blocks of layouts and trade then move towards societies and demonstrators in due course.

What? The team? 😁 Probably one or two less than needed.
The show? Roughly what folk will be used to seeing.
There's a lot to sort but if we'd tried to get most of that done before a full announcement it would have been the worst kept secret in the hobby so, as things were only confirmed 48 hours ago, we've just gone for giving the where and when whilst we get down to it all.

Thank you; the phone's been buzzing all afternoon with 100% positivity from the trade over a national showcase event for the hobby continuing.
Lots of work to do now within the team!

Otherwise their is a more frequent regular bus or two on the lhs, uselful if you are an official Grumpy Old Git with a free bus pass. I think (but check) 55 is one of them, and possibly stand A3 or A4 - I've always thought those numbers are significant, but do check.
Looking at the bus maps it seems to be the 66 which you'd need to get from Frenchagate and get off on the last stop on Town Moor Ave before the bus turns NE into Sandringham Rd.
It's then 400m to the racecourse entrance.

The white hard standing to the right is mostly Hospital park and Ride and can be fenced off.
To the best of my knowledge I've never seen any grumbles about the amount of car park provision over the years.

They need a bit more red on the Baguley-Drewry plate!
Ripe for an etched replacement...
The image was of one of the livery samples. The issue of the red paint density on the plate had already been identified and the factory notified for the production run.

The Car Park opposite is going to be fun and it's still raining in Retford and is due to all day.
75%+ of the car park is hardstanding so it shouldn't be an issue for the majority.

i have no idea why the uploader is choosing to flip the image over, its the right way up on my phone
It's not choosing to do that; you're using your Apple device the wrong way round. Take pictures with the button to the right.

they are millions in debt but ripping off their customer isn't going to get them far.
This is the sort of immature and naive comment I expect to see on Facebook. How is a business ripping anyone off if they are in debt and not making large profits?
Pack in the inflammatory statements please.

I should just comment that there ain't no beef between Warners and Warley. 😁
