Yesterday I took Hexworthy to the Pevensey Bay Model Railway Club exhibition, held in Eastbourne.
The layout mostly performed well, the odd coupling glitch aside. Thanks to Tim Sanderson for helping out, and providing a Tal-y-llyn train. Here are a few of the other layouts.
Somewhere in France (Peter Capon) was the only other 009 layout, based on the trench railways of WW1 it portrayed the different areas behind the front.
Mertonford Summer 1983 (HO) by Andrew Knights.
Swingate Crossing (OO) by Jonathon Austin is a model of a place on the Hellingly Hospital Railway, of particular interest given my current hospital-railway project.
Frittenden Road (O) by Andy Chant depicts a Colonel Stephens style light railway.
Not sure which OO layout this is but may have been St Mellion by Southwark & District MRC, a nicely modelled Clyde Puffer style boat, although it could do with being tied up!
Rhiw (OO) by Chris Ford and Nigel Hill.
Hexworthy will be out again in a couple of weeks at the Chatham show, maybe see you there!
