bike2steam Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 If you are directly involved, and as a carer myself, I wish you every success, and may you take loads of money. If I lived closer I would definitely go myself, just for being for a good cause. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Savoyard Posted January 18, 2010 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 18, 2010 Post show report In the end there was only 4 layouts but a nice small friendly exhibition and was well supported by locals, it was interesting to hear so many dads who were getting in to the hobby after their sons had got a train set. One dad said his son had taken to DCC like a duck to water, and that was with a Hornby system! Rederrring worked well after some initial loose wires and getting the levels right so the kadees worked, I must need to remember to put a spiirt level in next time! TouchCab created lots of interest and I discovered the route setting on the ECoS. Regards, Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noting your comment about the spirit level, you can use the iPhone for that as well! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
