Not strictly an exhibition, but Dartmoor 009 Group (now recognised by the 009 Society) are holding a presentation at the Ford ParkCemetry Trust, Ford Park Road, Plymouth, PL4 6NT on Saturday 14th and Sunday the 15th of March. I realise not the most inspiring of venues but we will be showing our modular DCC 009 layout based on the Lynton and Barnstaple. No admission but only donations to the trust. Please come and enjoy our modelling display! Saturday from 11 - 4, Sunday 10:30 - 3:30
As Charlie mentioned above, there is no entrance fee but there will be tea and cake for sale and the money raised will go towards helping the trust maintain Plymouth's historically important Victorian cemetery.
So if you fancy watching some narrow gauge trains amble along our modular layout consisting of 3 individual layouts, Barnstaple Station, Pilton Yard, Hackit's Sawmill and Simonsbath Station, (all part of an extended Lynton and Barnstaple railway!), connected by linking boards, whilst drinking tea and eating cake, please come along and meet us and we will be only too happy to natter on about narrow gauge railways!
Also, as Charlie is newly appointed 009 society kit officer, now's the chance to meet him and have a chat about what you would like to see available!
We were also thinking about starting up a regular meet-up for Narrow Gauge modellers in the Plymouth/Exeter/East Cornwall area so if you are interested in getting involved please drop by and have a chat.
(PS – if you fancy bringing along any loco's to run, we'd love to see them, but they will have to be DCC enabled!)
