RMweb Gold RedgateModels Posted February 24, 2014 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted February 24, 2014 Just printed off a load of best in show voting forms, should be an interesting result this year as to my eyes there is not one "stand out" layout this year. Could be a close run thing for once. and just in case Kenton wants to venture "oop north" here's the floorplan We've concentrated the exhibits into the two main rooms upstairs this year as opening up the third room would leave the whole with an air of something missing it was felt. We actually have one more layout than last year but seem to have more space. I hope to see loads of RMwebbers over the weekend, come and see me on Fourgig East, I'll also have the 4mm Rail Grinder with me and Pete Harvey will be helping me on the Sunday, so if you have any questions for him etc ...... Don't forget Paul Chetter (pauliebanger)'s DCC sound demo on the Saturday only and Cav's weathering demos all weekend next to Mason's Werrington Road Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold RedgateModels Posted February 26, 2014 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted February 26, 2014 Oh and whilst I was sorting through packing boxes I found the PH Designs Harsco Rail Grinder, I'll bring it with me so that anyone interested can have a look. I've not progressed any more with it since this photo, it's in four bits at the moment - chassis, main body, cab and cab roof but it does run on DC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold RedgateModels Posted February 28, 2014 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted February 28, 2014 Got home from work yesterday to be greeted by the lovely smell of baking.
