York Model Railway Exhibition.\u00a0 \u00a0[A dose of realism].<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>This weekend is our local show. Its also one of the largest and a fixture in the exhibition calendar. For years now I have had a stand doing modelmaking demo with a bit of sales thrown in.\u00a0 Its evolved over the years to now have a standard spot [stand 116] on the top floor forming a narrow gauge enclave with the 7mm Narrow Gauge Association and the 009 Society.<\/p>\n

There are now three of us making an exhibition of ourselves over the weekend, Adrian Gray, Phil Traxson and myself. Its turned into a bit of a social event for us and a chance for a good gossip with the visitors.<\/p>\n

In the past the stand & display has filled the back of a Volvo estate and has taken several trips with trolleys by to able bodied people to shift it in and out.<\/p>\n

The dose of Realism?<\/span><\/h2>\n

I’ll spare you the gory views of the leg but this is the dressing whilst its clean and fresh. Things to note:-<\/p>\n
