My favourite show comes around again, and once again I got there – just!  Despite outstanding wallpapering and other jobs, I took off straight after church on Sunday 18th to drive down to Uckfield.  I arrived at about 1:30pm, so … Continue reading →

Saturday, and exhibition time again (avoiding cleaning my youngest’s new property.) Allan couldn’t think of a suitable breakfast near Fareham, so we diverted to the Station Yard Cafe in Alton – for the usual excellent breakfast. We then trundled down … Continue reading →

Folkstone and Headcorn exhibitions #3

We’ll finish off the Folkstone show with another batch of layout photos. Five Mile House (OO) models the East Coast main line in 1935. Trains in the landscape, and a pleasant watch. (The layout is a lot longer than my … Continue reading →

Folkstone and Headcorn exhibitions #2

And so on to Folkstone. We’ll start with Nick Falconer’s venerable Konigshafen (N), returning to the Folkstone show after 30 years – and still running well. This is a different layout from the Konigshafen that went to TINGS – Nick … Continue reading →
