Patrick Davey Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 (edited) I had a very enjoyable visit to this excellent show yesterday, in the equally excellent company of Alan of this parish!  Great to meet plenty of forum members there too, especially @leslie10646   And of course I just had to expand my Provincial Wagons fleet while I was there..... An excellent show all round with plenty of top class vendors in attendance.  Well done NDMRS for presenting another fantastic show. Some views from my visit: @leslie10646 & myself! O scale Dargle Road O scale Dargle Road  The next four views are of the superb 'Fenaghy Junction' in OO:  The next three views are of Nelson Jackson's exquisite NER layout in OO:  Three views of Gordon Hunt's superb 'Donaghadee', this has to be seen to be believed:  These were my top choices - there were many many more excellent layouts on display.  Maybe 'Brookhall Mill' will be there next year!   Edited April 17, 2023 by Patrick Davey 13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LARNE CABIN Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 @Patrick Davey, @Galteemore, @leslie10646, sorry to have missed you guys. I had hoped to make it to Bangor on Saturday or Sunday, but was unable to do so, even though it's only 14 miles from Larne to Bangor (as the crow flies, 34 miles by road). Thanks for posting those photos, Patrick. Looks to have been a great exhibition. Hopefully next year, and hopefully Brookhall Mill will be there Patrick. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LARNE CABIN Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Patrick, @Patrick Davey, just looking again at your photos from Bangor Exhibition, and noticing the lattice post Upper Quadrant Semaphores on the Donaghadee layout. I know you're a bit of a BCDR aficionado, so is this authentic? I'm not at all questioning Gordon's absolutely wonderful model, and I'm sure that it's 100% accurate, but I was not aware of Upper Quadrants at Donaghadee! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leslie10646 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 @Patrick Davey, thanks for the photos of the exhibition and for calling by! Thanks to all who made the long trip so worthwhile, my best sales for the NDMRC exhibition (in well over ten visits)! The six and four plank limited edition sold out! Thanks especially to the team at NDMRC, led by the estimable Exhibition Manager, Ellen, who did a terrific job all around. Having driven through the night from Holyhead with Richard McLachlan, I slept right through the day! Absolutely knackered! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
