This is the first time the L&DMRC has exhibited at this annual show and we look forward to showing our N Gauge layout to a new audience. It might be worth coming along on both days, as on each day there will be different era stock running.

Unfortunately the writer will be not be part of the exhibition team, as he is playing boule in France on these dates; perhaps the operation will be improved as a result.

After receiving an initial enquiry, nothing was heard from South Hants MRC, so it was thought that we weren’t to be invited.

Just before Christmas, layout leader Nick has received a firm invite, albeit after agreeing to a smaller team to operate.

That means that the Liphook and District MRC will be exhibiting N gauge layouts two weeks running - ie on Sunday 24th February 2008 at Midhurst with Vierbrucken and Saturday1st March 2008, with Cottleston Park, at the South Hants Show.

We hope to see many local enthusiasts at both shows!

The South Hants MRC Show will be held on Saturday 1st March 2008 at Crookhorn College of Technology, Stakes Hill Road, Waterlooville. See full details in the major railway modelling magazines and local papers.
