Well, TINGS is over, and I gather my modules behaved very well even without me standing threateningly over them! I was very sorry to miss it, but Allan sent me a lot of good photos which will feature over the next few days.  The pictures are a little short of trains because they were taken before the show started. However the videos I’ve attached have plenty of things running.

I’ll start with the N Club International layout, as I still haven’t got details of all the other exhibits. I gather the layout got some very favourable comments, even from one or two people who don’t like modular layouts. It shows how a modular layout can look consistent when the modules are built to a common standard – even in this case when there are modules from England and Germany. There was also a consistent set of trains running, mostly from Germany but also Thomas the Tank Engine.

We’ll start with a general view of proceedings….

And today we’ll have the UK contribution. These came from Nick, with his extended Bahnbetriebswerk Königshafen modules….

Richard’s modules….

And my two. And the plaque for them….

A couple of character shots. Stefan taking photos and talking to the famous Mr Kato.

And finally for today, one of the videos on YouTube of the show, that has some good shots of the NCI layout. Not up to Brian’s standards but never mind!
