Blaine Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 http://www.modelrail-scotland.co.uk/index.html Well worth a visit, a smaller, friendlier version of Warley. Flights are also cheap from Ireland at present, given there is no Scotland vs Ireland Rugby that weekend. Friday is the cheapest day to fly and Glasgow International Airport is a short taxi/train run away http://www.secc.co.uk/attend/how-to-get-here.aspx The MRSI will be exhibiting with Baile Cois Farraige and Dun Ni Rian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dhu Varren Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I will be at the exhibition for the whole three days operating 'Craigellachie' with the Moray MRG. If anyone has the time, and I appreciate that the show has a lot to take in, it would be great to meet and have a quick chat. Just ask for DJ.

Dhu Varren Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Thanks to all those who took the time to stop at stand 4C and chat, great to see you. I appreciate that on a one day trip to the show, time is limited. My apologies if anyone stopped, but I was not there, probably due to being on stewarding duties. It was a great show (certainly from the social point of view), although I was not able to pick up all the bits and pieces on my shopping list. Couple of pictures of the MRSI layout. Other show pictures to follow later. Full view of layout. A DUKW about to make a splash. If you visit Dublin, you have to take a 'Viking Splash' tour in a DUKW, it is the best city tour you will ever have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scahalane Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Always love seeing this layout, nice job on the pt van as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josefstadt Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Had a great time at the Model Rail Scotland show last Friday - lots of superb layouts. And it was great to meet Dhu Varren of this site and put a face to the name! Hope the remainder of the show was a great success. A few photos: Travelled from Glasgow Central (Low Level) to Exhibition Centre station on a Scotrail Class 334 e.m.u. Eaton Gomery (Wigan Finescale Railway Modellers) Hazelbank (Stirling & Clackmannan Model Railway Club) Rannoch (Bristol East Model Railway Club) Salz OBB (Michael Watts) Darjeely (Kyle Model Railway Club) And, of course, Craigellachie (Moray Model Railway Group) which is where I met Dhu Varren.

Ray1964 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I really enjoyed the show. It was great to meet the lads from MRSI and thanks for the application form!! Your layout was brilliant. What a show. There were some amazing layouts on show. I managed to pick up a beautiful Tornado with a few Pullman coaches. I also picked up a couple of Craven Caraiges from Marks Models. I met Scottish Dave as well. Regards, Ray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
