MACCLESFIELD MODEL RAILWAY GROUP would like to thank everyone who supported our show on 11th & 12th April. It was the most successful show we’ve had for many, many years and a fantastic response to our move to our new venue.
To those who organised it and those that volunteered their help, Kings School who host the event, the exhibitors who demonstrated their skills and showed us their incredidible model railways, all the traders who provide so many of the ‘essentials’ for the hobby, our catering staff, those who helped ‘spread the word’ by ‘liking’ and ‘sharing’ our posts, the two classic buses that ferried so many to and from the town centre and, of course, every single visitor …. we could not have done it without ALL OF YOU!
Thank you , somehow, doesn’t even begin to cover the gratitude we feel for all your amazing support.
It’s SHOW TIME next weekend (11th & 12th April) at our new venue in the Kings School Sports Hall, Alderley Road, Macclesfield, SK10 4RH. With 25 layouts, it’s a far bigger show than we could ever have held at Tytherington. Download our Newsletter below (it’s FREE!) for all the information you could ever need about this show, plus our usual variety of articles about railways large and small!
MMRG’s Annual Model Railway Exhibition
You might find that this ‘N’ scale layout is more than a little reminiscent of the Buxton/Dove Hoes area. You’d be right because it is based on that area! Whilst it is not modelled on any real location, it is an imaginary portrayal of what might have been given an alternative history.
You can see this layout (and 24 others!) at our show on 11th & 12th April at the Kings School Sports Hall, Alderley Road, Macclesfield, SK10 4RH …. our first and biggest show at this new venue.
Please ‘like’, comment, share or even repost if you can. It all helps the algorithms to raise the shows profile on this web site and makes it easier for people looking for information about the show.
If you would like to know more, please download (free) our monthly newsletter for February (http://eepurl.com/jynhTA) and March (http://eepurl.com/jAAWjs). The show supplements will give you all the information you need …. and more!
I guess many of us will be thinking of getting away from it all this summer and if you are planning your escape to the Swiss Alps, perhaps we can offer you something of a preview. Swiss Pass is just one of the 25 layouts visiting our show on the 11th & 12th April at the Kings School Sports Hall, Alderley Road but it does beautifully reflect the scenery you will see on your Swiss escape.
It’s a great layout you really should not miss seeing.
