RMweb Premium TimC Posted February 2, 2014 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted February 2, 2014 Many thanks to all visitors and exhibitors for yesterday. We had a good day. Here are a few snaps of the show. Passing trains on Hook Basin Russell on shed at DInas Blackrock A quiet moment at Tucking Mill High tide at Stow Creek Farnham club's, in progress, layout of Wickwar (which is just a few miles north of Yate) - this was of particular interest to the general non modelling visitors to the exhibition and the Farnham gang learned a bit from local knowledge too! Thanks again to all, now where is that list I had for 2015............. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
