HELP! with setting up the Show

We are once again able to gain access to the school premises on Friday
afternoon June 29th from 2pm onwards.

We need as many pairs of hands as possible to prepare the halls & set
up the tables prior to the traders & layouts arriving later.

If you can give a hand please come along to the School.

The TT and 3mm Scale exhibits will form a 50 years of British TT - 3mm scale celebration. The 3mm layout Helston http://www.users.waitrose.com/~gowenkj/ is well known and respected on the model railway exhibition circuit and is a model of the GWR station at Helston in Cornwall, long since closed. It has also been featured in Railway Modeller and British Railway Modelling.

Mike Fowler's Trains of the 60's layout, also featured in British Railway Modelling will be making possibly its last show appearance, as Mike says he is going to sell his superb layout.

Other layouts/displays previously featured at major exhibitions include Simon Culverhous's British Mini-Trix layout and display, seen at last years Warley exhibition at the NEC. Bowlers Croft (Wrenn/Dublo), one of Derek Smith's layouts. Derek and friends regularly put on displays at major exhibitions including Warley and Alexandra Palace.

The traders this year give a good selection across the whole range of toy train/model railway scales and gauges which hopefully will satisfy most peoples needs.

Travel: There’s plenty of free parking on the school site which is a few minutes from the A1 (see map). If travelling by train, Sandy station is on the East Coast Mainline from Kings Cross and Peterborough and is about ten minutes walk from the station. There will be a vintage London Transport free bus service to take you to and from the school.

This is an event at which you need to spend a day and thanks to the School we can offer all day catering and room to move about at ease. Sandy town centre is reasonably close, so a pub, supermarket or chippy can be easily reached in the middle of the day if you fancy a stroll.

And don't forget, anyone joining the Train Collectors Society during the weekend will receive a refund on the admission charge!
