Title: NG South Sparsholt - 14 April 2012
Post by: MickT on January 29, 2012, 10:24
Information just received from Exhibition Manager, Alan Rolfe, who has now posted the list of layouts attending on the NGS website at: www.narrowgaugesouth.org.uk .

27 layouts in the main event: 12 x 009, 3 x HOe, 2 x 09, 1 x G9, 1 x 014, 3 x 016.5, 1 x 00tram, 1 x 0n30, 1 x SM32, 1 x 1:32/16.5 and 1 x 1:25/16.5 plus a number of other 7mm layouts which are being arranged by the 7mm NGA

Trade and Society attendances will be added to the website later when space availabilities and trade/society responses to invites have been confirmed.

Don't forget, as if anyone on this forum should need reminding, that NGS is also the venue for the Society AGM!

Hi Mick - I presume there'll be a courtesy bus from and to Winchester?

Don't know I'm afraid Dave, not part of the organising committee. Suggest ask Alan

According to the website, tere isn't a dedicated vintage bus running this year, but the Stagecoach Winchester 07 goes from the station to Sparsholt

PDF timetable here:
http://tinyurl.com/NGS-Sparsholt-07-Bus (http://tinyurl.com/NGS-Sparsholt-07-Bus)

In simple terms:
City Road (Stop R)   07:35   08:34   09:14   10:14   11:14   12:14   13:14   14:14   15:14   16:44   17:44
Sparsholt College     07:51   08:51   09:31   10:31   11:31   12:31   13:31   14:31   15:31   17:01   18:01
City Road (Stop R)   08:16   09:16   09:56   10:56   11:56   12:56   13:56   14:56   15:56   17:26   18:26


The bus doesn't go direct from the station, you need to walk down to City Road (Stop R), as shown here:

The Sparsholt bus goes up the hill TOWARDS the station, so walking from the station, you need Stop R on the RIGHT handside of the road.
