The exhibition was another great success with fourteen layouts attending. There were
twelve different scale/gauge combinations on show including those in 1:25 scale, 0, 0-16.5, S, P4,
EM, 00, 00-9, H0, 3mm/ft scale, British N and Continental N. Something for everyone! Layouts traveled
from as far away as Hampshire, Kent, Oxfordshire, Somerset, Surrey and Wiltshire, portraying British,
American and European standard and narrow gauge prototypes.
Twelve members of the trade, including specialist manufacturers, had a presence at the show. Three
of these were new to the event: Ayjay Models, Dart Castings and No Nonsense Kits. There was a display
by the model engineers from the Bentley Miniature Railway as well as the popular demonstration stand, this year with
guest demonstrators Tony Wright and David Bickerton.
The show was very successful, with many comments being received as to the high quality of
the exhibits, the variety of trade goods on offer and the general friendliness of those
taking part.
