Our first exhibition !

We have attended our first exhibition with our "in progress" OO layout, here are some shots from the set up for the Poole & District Model Railway show this November...
Kerry Pope put together a super story board to show in pictures and words our journey in choosing, designing and starting the building of the layout

We were positioned on the stage at a height where visitors could see the actual construction and we had several loco and train formations running on the day. Both Kevin and Ted gave up their time to run stock and answer any questions.
We also took our first almost completed "rotating sector plate" both to show progress and get feedback from visitors. Our next outing whenever and wherever that is will have the layout up on its legs and fully operational with much of the scenery and building work well on its way.
