Great to see this layout out under the Club’s banner - first of three outings this autumn.
The expoEM shows always have great inspiration and some of the niche traders that don’t venture to the big shows, and our members are often there in numbers.
Minories is one of the 11 layouts you can see at expoEM Summer on 30/1 August in Wakefield - alongside demonstrations and 13 trade stands - showcasing some of the best in 4mm scale modelling. ℹ️ emgs.org/mc-events/ex... 📍WF2 7EL #expoEM

We had a truly London Underground themed evening at Keen House this week - passenger and engineering vehicles and a mixture of RTR, kit built, scratch built and 3D printed. Great to see such a variety of modelling.

One of our member’s layouts “Golden Mile” is at the Salisbury and West Wilts Rlwy Soc exhibition this weekend at @thruxtonracing.bsky.social Come and see how modelling in 2mmFS fits a lot into a small space - and how it’s been automated. You’d better race over - open until 3pm
