Thanks to Tim Horn for the pictures

The picture is from the Warley Show Facebook page, I expect to be there for setting up at around 4:20pm tomorrow.

The Scalefour Society Stand will be at the 2018 Warley Show this coming weekend. The Warley Show You will find us on Stand D62 and the two P4 layouts Lower Exbury (D60) and Sidmouth (D61) will be close by. This year the Society Stand will be manned by Paul Willis; Mike Ainsworth; Memnbership Secreta...

I should like to say something about the social fringe. The case for this is strengthened by the arrival of a party, clearly composed of distinguished guests, escorted by a member of the Committee and later joined by others. It would have been nice for the mere mortals to be introduced to the disti...

Here is a link to the online timetable I expect I'll see many familiar faces there on Saturday: l...

Kettlewell won the LMS Society Award for the best LMS (and predecessors) Layout.







And Mostyn won the Hornby Trophy for Modern Image and the Norman Cadge Award for the Best Signalled Model Railway

Plenty of people around the two P4 layouts, Mostyn and Kettlewell

The Scalefour Society is at the Warley Show this weekend; looking forward to seeing lots of members and friends old and new.







Last bit of setting up this morning, just before the show opened

Hi Alan,

Of course it is vaguely possible that Jeremy might see this post, but I wouldn't bet on it.
