West Sussex N Gauge Open Day – 2024

Tricky decision this morning!  Drive up to Abingdon for what looks like a large and excellent show there, or Breakfast at Tiffany’s with Allan and Derek and a visit to the West Sussex open day?  Then I found out that Nick Falconer had pulled Königshafen from appearing at the Abingdon show, due to a back injury.  This was the must see for the day.  And the weather forecast was very wet.  So I settled for a pleasant morning with friends, a good breakfast and a pleasant little show.  Especially as we know a lot of the West Sussex members, so it gave us a chance to catch up.

The show was a little different from their other open days that I have attended, as rather than a modular layout, they had a number of small, personal, layouts, and some work in progress.

Some micro-modules with some interesting scenery!

I liked Gilly’s new end loop.  All it needs are a few deer and a solitary man in a kilt with some bagpipes in the middle of the bog.

And a couple of Ian’s ‘Small and Working’ creations.

And here’s the prototype for everything department.  What to do with your low relief buildings.  This is in Kensington, West London.
