discussion Warley Model Railway Exhibition - NEC 22/23rd November 2014

[rickoshea52]

This weekend sees the biggest model railway show in the UK take place at the NEC in Birmingham. If any of you are interested there are all your usual manufacturers, shops and cottage industries with stalls as well as the best layouts on show. Even if trains aren't your thing there'll be something you find to inspire your diorama fantasies and plenty of other suppliers of stuff like buildings, scenery and electronics etc.

All being well I will be helping with the RAF Kinlos layout called Thornaby Colliery. Stop and say hello if you go to the show.

Well I hope that you take a camera and post a ship load of photos for all that cant go to see what we are missing- it might even get some more interested in model rail.

As is typical with my job as soon as I make firm plans for my own leisure a customer decides that they need me to help them fix their cockup. I've had to bin Warley as I will be going to Copenhagen instead.

A life expired part, Joe. But the replacement part is a previous configuration and needs to be modified. The problem is getting tools to CPH at short notice while they are still needed where I am. My suitcase is going to be very heavy.
