Title: Model Rail Scotland (Pic heavy. Last batch 28th March)
Post by: Andym on February 19, 2017, 08:00:27 AM

I usually big this up at this time of year! I'm not involved in any way, shape or form, but it's always a great source of inspiration never mind the fact there's a bundle of retailers that sell good stuff that can be used for Wargames terrain.

I'm struggling with Photobucket on my phone. The app seems to have got way worse!

Any way, the show at the weekend was great! Sooo much good stuff on show! I've got tons of pics. I'll get more up as Photobucket allows.....

This one was my favourite in the show. Its T-gauge and It's accurate t the point I recognise some of the stations I've worked in! :o

Thanks Andym, that was a treat - I remember last year's pics fondly too.
The Lime Street set up is impressive, but I think those steamers are my favourites.  :o 8) :-*

Yeah, the guy was building as people were watching. You could ask any questions. There was a few of these kinda guys about building terrain, electronics and soldering brass etch stuff. I've got the shoe programme in the house if you want details? I'll get them when I get back from working away from home Steve.

Very nice. We had a model railroad show here in Tacoma over the Xmas & New Year holidays. I took my 3 year old but didn't take any pictures. These photos are great. I think I should take picture of the show here next year.

Does that suggest that Liverpool has changed in the intervening eighty years? The presence of hubcaps on the miniature cars suggests it is a highly idealised and pre-war version of Liverpool :D

The rigid adherence to polite exchanges on these boards prevents me from delivering a typical, apposite Liverpool response (hint it consists of 2 words)....
