Woody's Hardware Store!

Following on from yesterdays post here are a few more layouts from the excellent East Midlands Narrow Gauge Group show.

Jubilee Works was unusual in that it was a 7mm dual gauge layout with both standard and narrow gauge track running together. I can only wonder at the skills in making those points!

Another unusual layout was Angst Lesspork which was themed around the Terry Pratchett book Going Postal

Show winner was Gnant Gwernol a very scenic 009 gauge layout. In fact it was so scenic that the railway almost disappeared!

Going down in size one modeller had produced a number of micro layouts.

And then going back up the size scale was this monster!

Finally, over the years I have met with James and his Grandson Dylan. James has only been modelling six or seven years nut has skills that defy that short time and Dylan.....well lets just say with what skills he has at his tender years if he carries on model making he will end up as one of the greats1 His 009 gauge layout is still a work in progress but as you can see it will be a fantastic layout.

Dylan is even building his own rolling stock which is fantastic to see.

Unbeknown to me, Dylan has created a bit of WMD on his layout.

It took me a moment to notice but the shop is named Woody's Hardware Store! 

I was quite taken aback by that but thanks Dylan! Very much appreciated!

There were some great traders there with products you never knew existed. I sis purchase a few bits despite the concerns of my Financial Advisor and wallet Watcher, Mrs. Woody! Eddy from 3D printing for charity had his stand there s a few interesting items came home as they always seem to do when he is in attendance!

A great show and some great people. Unfortunately I did not see Steve from Steve's 009 and 09 Adventure Blog. We probably just missed each other or he was keeping an eye out to miss me!
