Three of the layouts are from club members. That's about as far as our personnel will stretch. Geoff Endacott

We now have a full complement of layouts. The first post in this topic has been updated with layout names and descriptions. Geoff Endacott

It wasn't cancelled - merely moved to a different venue due to building works at the leisure centre. Geoff Endacott

Cheltenham is 30 & 31 October 2021. The availability of key personnel (me) rules out the other weekends in October. Geoff Endacott

The Calne Model Rail Show The Calne Leisure Centre, White Horse Way, Calne, Wilts., SN11 0SP. Saturday 23rd October 10.00 am - 5.00 pm Sunday 24th October 10.00 am - 4.30 pm Adult: £5.00, Child: £3.00, Group (2+2): £12.00. We didn't hold the usual Calne Show in January 2020 due to building works at the leisure centre. Instead we held a much smaller event at the nearby Beversbrook Sports Facility. We had expected to return to the leisure centre in January 2021 but something seems to have gone wrong! Trainwest was last held during April 2019 and has been cancelled for 2020 and 2021. It will return (we hope) in April 2022. We had long been pondering moving the Calne Show to the autumn in order to give us equal intervals after the preceding Trainwest and before the following Trainwest. So from adversity comes opportunity. We can't hold a Calne Show (or any other show) in January 2021. By early 2022 we will be busy preparing for the return of Trainwest after a gap of three years. But it does look as though a sufficient degree of normality will have returned in order to hold a Calne Show in October. We therefore intend to hold the next Calne Model Rail Show at its usual venue over the weekend of 23 & 24 October 2021. I do hope that we will remember how to run a show by then. More significantly I hope that people will still want to visit. Thanks for the offers of layouts. The show is now full.

I like the writing in the dirt explaining what 143018 is supposed to be. Geoff Endacott

That gives the impression of being a bereavement sale by someone who doesn't know what they are selling. Geoff Endacott
