Maidenhead '0' 2019: Exhibition Report

Our first specialist '0' gauge exhibition was held on 19th October 2019 at Knowl Hill Village Hall. On view were: the club layout "Cromwell Road Bridge", members layouts "Old Elm Park" and "Pollcombe" by Mark Pollard, "Little Hister" by Chris Pye and guest layout "Barton Hall" by Andrew Wren Hilton. Traders were: Connoisseur Models, CPL and Buzz Models. With so many layouts to operate, the cafe to service and tickets to sell all club members were kept very busy; but it was all worth it for the enjoyable day that we, and the visitors, had.  Attendance was good and we are very pleased with the number of parents and children who came.

Our now dismantled OO layout Southwick was the subject of an article in the May 2018 Hornby Magazine.
