RMweb Premium corneliuslundie Posted December 12, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 12, 2023 Is there going to be a show in 2024? I was told some time ago that it was hoped to do one. Well worth the trip from mid Wales. Jonathan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan Afternoon Jonathan, I had hoped to be pulling this together for January 2024 but events have conspired against me. All being well, I hope to announce something either later in 2024 or for January 2025. Rest assured, there will be an announcement as and when.

I had wondered - mainly because January was starting to get close, with nothing further said. Ultimately, things sometimes work out this way - not ideal - but we all make the best of what is realistically achievable. I'm sure that, whenever it happens, it'll be worth the wait - and people will want to be there. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will live again but for the avoidance of any doubt and to halt any further speculation, I'll be looking at this later in the year, making the necessary contact and announcements when as you so rightly say, there is something to announce........ as per earlier post.....

br2975 Posted February 14 Author Share Posted February 14 (edited) My brother Paul ( 'naturol' of this parish ) and I were the original organisers of the 'Cardiff Small Model Railway Shows' which were held at the Pontcanna Scout HQ in Cardiff. . We were assisted by Messrs Lord & Butler. . In the aftermath of the pandemic we considered the possibility of reviving the event, but after lengthy discussions decided against it. . 'NHY581" has mentioned to me that he would be willing to consider staging a similar event to the one time 'Cardiff Small Model Railway Show' . My brother Paul, and I support Rob's (NHY581) consideration of staging such an event, and would be prepared to assist in the background, if and where we can. . We are all of the opinion that there is a local need for such a small, friendly, one day event with exhibitors, demonstrations, societies and a trader or two. .

RMweb Premium corneliuslundie Posted February 15 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 15 I am too far away to help actively but I am sure that the WRRC would like to have a presence and to publicise any event. And of course I would be helping on the stand. It was a very enjoyable show when I was able to attend. Jonathan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I have several layouts pencilled in along with a few demos and traders, I won't be looking at this until at least June/July due to my pre-existing commitments to organising SWAG and my own layout commitments to a number of shows this year. Therefore, any formal approaches to any other organisations will not be made until at least July. Rob. 3 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted July 2 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 2 Morning all, It now no longer looks like the Small Cardiff Show will take place as anticipated, for a couple of reasons. I may do a smaller ( if that's possible) Rmweb members day but for now, take it as read that there will NOT be a Small Cardiff Show in the previous format.
