I have not seen that much publicity for this event.
As well as the usual NG steam trains there is a model railway exhibition at the Bredgar & Wormshill Railway near Sittingbourne this coming Sunday 6th May.
There are several NG layous including 009 examples.
The layouts include:
Compass point
Sand Point
Beta Cables
Shipmeadow
South Downs Tar
Ville a le Campagne
Volks Electric Railway
There is also a portable ride-on garden railway coming and the bluebells in the woods do look wonderful.
Several of us from the 009 Essex group are going.
This is the first model railway exhibition at Bredgar, lets hope with support that it will become a regular event.

Thanks for publicising this event Brian, it looks to be an excellent day out. Very much doubt that I would be able to get there but hope that all those who do make the trip find that it was worth the effort to get to sunny Kent!

Just a quick update to this. The Show was a huge success with Bredgar beating all their previous attendance records. This may well be due to it being a bank holiday weekend and very sunny! Invicta Model Rail have now had a debrief with Bredgar & Wormshill who are over the moon with the exhibition. As a result, the second Bredgar show will be on 5th May 2019.
That is good news Kevin. 1096 people so I understand!
It was a super event and a very enjoyable day.
Although I have already thanked you in person, thank you again and the others for organising this event and I look forward to next year.
We really enjoyed the show and I'm glad it was a great success.
Thank you and the other organisers again for inviting me.
