    Diesel Depot has won the Best New Layout Award and a Perpetual Shield for Wexford MRC on its first exhibition outing at Enniskillen! Thanks to Erne MRC for organising the exhibition and for their hospitality.

    Thanks for that David. We met briefly last year at Telford where I admired your lovely "Arigna" layout! Gerry

    Thanks Noel. One of our members is looking at replicating this design in O Gauge! Regards, Gerry

    MRSI Raheny alternate each year with the South Dublin MRC to hold an exhibition so this year the Dublin Exhibition is at Blackrock College (Cross Avenue Entrance) on October 26th, 27th and 28th (Bank Holiday Weekend) 11am to 5 pm. Wexford Model Railway Club will be there with their O gauge "Little Siddington" layout:

    Thank you! SY has been shown 4 times at exhibition and usually gets a good response from the visitors.

    You wait years for a 121 and then 12 turn up together!

    Buy one, cut it in half, then you have two ends to display at your engine shed!

    Mr Soundguy is the original supplier of all Irish diesel loco soundchips and worth supporting - all the other suppliers came later with "me too" products!

    All part of the quirkyness that made Irish Railways special!

    Great book. Every station on the line is covered with extensive photos and a drawing of the layout of the points and tracks. I used it as an essential reference when developing models of Llangollen, Cynwyd and Llanuwchllyn stations.

    I met the author Martin Williams at the Bala MR Exhibition - he published a fine book on the Llangollen (Ruabon to Barmouth) line and has a new book out on the Bala-Ffestiniog branch which is selling out fast and well worth a read.

    Worth a visit. The memory of the camp lingers in the area with a memorial and Irish flag flying at the location. A local farmer welcomes visitors to his place where he has a shed full of memorabilia of the camp.

    What scale is that - could it be incorporated into a model of the DART/mainline I wonder?

    Some interesting layouts of note at the Bala MR Exhibition in Wales this May (all proceeds to the Bala Lake Railway town extension "Red Dragon" project): Wood Street in O Gauge: Arch Road in O Gauge: Forth Bridge (24 feet long) in T Gauge (one third of N)! Forest Green in OO with working sempahore signals/smoke effects: North Winterland: and Cynwyd in N:

    For its 5th public outing "Cynwyd" was shown at the Bala MR Exhibition in Wales in May:
  20. Irishrailwayman
    I attended the recent Bala MR Exhibition in Wales with my "Cynwyd" layout but noted a number of static exhibits there of Irish interest: First, three shots of a model of the Listowel & Ballybunion "Laritigue" monorail system: SnN Secondly, an exhibit entitled "Shannon Tramway":

    Great video indeed. A great exhibition experienced here in Wexford as you can see. Thanks to everyone who exhibited and visited us. Next year's exhibition is being moved to the 9th and 10th of May 2020 because many find it difficult to cover the Easter/Bank-holiday period due to school holidays/vacations/other events etc.
