Title: A good 009 show to go to?
Post by: Robert Bushill on December 05, 2014, 16:22
Hello,

I am a returning member from a few years ago.

I live in the Cardiff area and would like to go to a large 009 show. I recall going to Shepton Mallet some years ago, that was a good show for me, good trade, lots of layouts and not too far :-)

Can anybody tell me of another show I could attend that would be worth the travelling or even my closest group?

Many thanks.
Rob.

I've been going to Narrow Gauge South West (Shepton Mallet) for most of my life, its a great show and always has a good array of layouts and traders.

There's been attempts to start a group in South Wales, but I'm not sure if anything ever came of it.

If you are interested in meeting up with other local members who are also interested in 009, and may lead to a group, please send an email to contents@009society.com and I can put a note in the 009 News to see if there is any interest.

Thanks, I've just seen it.

We've just sent the next issue off to the printers, so it will be going in the one after that.

In the mean time I suspect that the M5/M50 Group is the closest to you...

Check out the line-up for NG Southwest in February the exhibition diary - 34 NG layouts listed....................so far. Not to be missed I think!
