Might head down again as I had a great experience the last time I was there. People were very friendly and the guys in the café plied me with loads of tea, sandwiches and cakes. Something very personable about the Wexford exhibition, hopefully, Iarnród Éireann will be operating a train service to Wexford that day as there were engineering works in progress on the line the last weekend I was down there.

Looking forward to it, great number of layouts

Very sad that IRM cannot make it but we will be at a UK show representing Accurascale that we had already booked in for. 

Hopefully next year the stars align and I get back to the Sunny South East!

Likewise, my regrets that Provincial Wagons won't be present either. My "Agent" isn't available.

Thanks for the invitations guys and have a great show.

Thank you IRM - most likely we will have our Annual Wexford Easter Exhibition on April 9th and 10th 2023. So put that in the diary everyone!

I’m going to the Wexford show on Sunday with my wife travelling from Cork. It’ll be an early start for us. I’m looking forward to the show which is very friendly and exhibits great layouts.

A few photos from the Wexford Clubs exhibition yesterday.

Great show. There was a great variety of layouts and very friendly show. I got a flat tyre in the rain after the show. I like to thank the gentleman who assisted me and took no reward. There’s still kindness in this world. It is much appreciated.

Bit of a cold bug stopped me going anywhere yesterday, but I'd have gone to see that Rathmichael one alone - never seen it before. Excellent, pure South Wexford.

[Rush and Lusk]

Another excellent show in Wexford yesterday - I particularly like the warm, welcoming and positive atmosphere amongst exhibitors and attendees. I began with a lovely cup of tea and cake in the Station Cafe after my drive from Dublin. I took some small video clips for my own reference, but thought I might share a few here - Old Farm, Carraigthomas, Rathmichael and Ballybeg.

Well done to all involved.

Hi Jhb, this layout is booked to be shown at the MRSI October Exhibition in Dublin!

 

[Westcorkrailway]

Excellent! I booked my tickets from cork this morning 

getting the train up but the aircoach back due to the engineering works 

[popeye]

Great Layouts, very well done to you all 

I notice from the pictures that there seems to be a lot more diesel layouts now and less steam, in Ireland anyway.

And a good number of smaller 'micro'-type layouts too.  All amazing, whatever their size!
