National Garden Railway Show 2026 -who's going?

[Northsider]

The usual round Robin to see who is attending and whether there is any interest in meeting up?
I will be there, and suggest we meet by @PhilP 's RC Train stand, as it allows him to look at us over the top of his spectacles whilst dealing with his punters. My understanding is that RC Trains will be on stand No.1 on the attached map: it is top left of the map, next to the Conveniences, which might be...erm...convenient, for gentlemen of a certain age!

Now then, what time?

We already have a supply of chocolate digestives.. They even appear on the check-list!

I suspect if the faces in front of you are passing money and plastic over to you you'll be a happy chappy.

I'll give you a call next week regarding a wee project your electrical bits could be the best solution to a challenge I have.

Hi All. I shall be there on the 16mm modular layout as usual. No 45mm track this year, but we will have some nice 32mm gauge live steam locos running to keep the crowds entertained. Do pop over. and say hello if you are going to Stoneleigh. I will try to get over to Philip's stand to meet up with folk. See you Saturday . David

That's why I thought we would meet adjacently (is that a word?), as I know you rarely escape from 'behind the counter'

As no one has indicated a time preference, shall we say 12:30?

 

[dunnyrail]

Sadly shall not be able to attend.

 

[JimmyB]

I, also will not be there
