A big thank you to all of those who brought along models for the 009 Society Display Case at Sparsholt. Whilst it is not strictly a competition as such, Certificates of Merit are awarded ---- if it was down to me, all who contributed would receive a certificate, as all the qualifying models in the display were outstanding.
Anyway the judging was in the hands of others, and the following were awarded certificates. The list below is in alphabetical order by contributor's surname.
Simon Cox ---- A pair of Railbuses -- including a superb recreation of Reinier Hendriksen's railbus ( see 009 News Aug/Sept 1999 for the original )
Peter Dale ----- De Dion Railcar plus single axle trailer.
Charles Insley----Blanc Misseron Bi-Carbine Tram Loco plus bogie coaches.
Stephen Sullivan ---- Plynlimon & Hafan bogie coach
Julien Webb----- O&K 0-6-0T Xanadu
Garry Whiting----- Pair of Rushby Resins Railbuses
Again thank you to all who participated, it was a joy to admire the modelling on display.
