Good luck with the show guys,

 

Once it is set up and running you will forget what all the worry was about. I'm still shocked how quickly you have achieved this and at the standard it has reached!

 

Please take plenty of pics at the show.

Just back home from Wimrail.

 

A good show in a very nice venue. Some good layouts, some less good.

 

Tidworth in many ways the best there and running very well for a first show.

 

I find that some layouts look better in photos than when seen for real. Others conversely look better "in the flesh" than in photos. Tidworth is in the second category. I particularly liked the ground signals.

Thanks Joseph for your kind comments most appreciated and glad Tidworth didn't disappoint.

 

Well day one over and all seemed to go okay and the layout seemed well received, although the show didn't seem that busy at any point during the day unless people weren't finding us on the balcony. Had a minor point motor issue that was easily overcome but may need attention before the next outing, any other issues were the team including myself getting used to running in exhibition conditions!

 

Look forward to meeting more of you tomorrow, "spenc" said hello today and spent a couple of hours operating!

You'd be welcome at the new place in Ludgershall or maybe Barnstaple at end of July?

Morning,

Here are a couple of pictures  from yesterday as the sun was setting on Tidworth's debut.

Apart from the sticky point that Ian mentioned any other incidents were down to the operators.  This was the first time we'd all operated together so it wasn't too bad.

Today will be faultless. :jester:

Hi Mate, Ludgershall only temporary then?

 

Remember staying in Barnstaple 2012 not a bad little town.

 

Cheers Peter.

No worries, I am sure we will be able to catch up and see the gang.

A few photos of events yesterday - great fun, but very stressful remembering the loco numbers, routes, ground signals, reset the ground signals, stop loco before crashing......
