Re: RAILEX 2014
We only had one P4 layout last year, I think the most we have had is six, Maybe I should have more than ten then I could have more than Scaleforum!
We hope to demos this year on laser cutting and 3D printing

Grrr! for SWMBO
I will miss Railex this year as my attendance in Tuscany is required for major wedding anniversary family gathering.
Choices, choices
As communicated privately I hope to see your demo in September at Scaleforum.
By going public maybe lots of others will join my plea?

Yes it is although looking at the details of the layouts I think that those who are interested in the diesel and electric era will have difficulty in finding a lot that will be of interest.

Well Dewsbury will be running in it's blue diesel period, The Great Train Robbery features a class 40 and quite a few other layouts are in the 1960s period and will have a few diesels too

Re: RAILEX 2014
Although my layout is considered 'modern' it's still set over a quarter of a century ago. The '60s layouts David mentions are half a century ago. I'm very much in a minority modelling the 1980s and when I do finally start exhibiting I too will be showing something 50 years ago. There's always been a big gap in Modern layouts and discounting all of the TMD layouts there still is I'm afraid.
Having said that, a good model is a good model regardless of what the prototype is.

Of course.

Although arguably a more interesting period than more recent times.

Good to hear. It will of course be important that the punters know that.

Re: RAILEX 2014
...quite a trek from the Staffs Moorlands but we made it last year and hope to get there again this time.
Always excellent and one of my annual favourites.

Re: RAILEX 2014
Just a week to go, we will be running our vintage bus from the Aylesbury railway station car park to Railex every half an hour on the Saturday morning then hourly in the afternoon and Sunday, we will also be selling Railex tickets on the bus to save you buying them at the stadium.

Re: RAILEX 2014
Always great on the bus, David. And entrance tickets on sale aboard are a very good idea.
But is there a timetable available?
On an hourly service in the afternoon, the timetable does make a difference to how long one can stay if you have long-distance trains to catch, as I have. So a timetable in advance would help.

Re: RAILEX 2014
It is on our website www.railex.org.uk, there is a football match at Wembly so may change to accommodate the stopping trains at Wembly a bit but I would think it would only be a few minutes either way if at all.

There's a nice preview of Railex in Scalefour News 187. It's just started arriving on doormats in the UK, but if you would like to read it before the weekend for sure, there is always the pdf in the archive.

Seconded, a great day out, lots of good things to see. Worth going on two days for all the things you missed on the first day, but sadly other commitments prevail for me tomorrow.

Quite the best show I've been to in recent years. The layouts were a pleasure to watch; I spent nearly an hour in front of Bath Green Park. Running all round was exceptional. Trade support was dangerously good for what I model.

Yes a great show. The quality of the 2mm running was particularly astounding.
Make Worcestershire great again.
