Just for kids of all ages: indoors and something new this year!
Exhibition Manager's Diary.
22nd September, 2009: After a summer of rest, thoughts turn to creating another great event, building on the increasing popularity of the summer show. Over the next few weeks, information will start to appear on this page, starting with the line-up of layouts. Keep watching!
10th November, 2009: As our enthusiastic team prepare to take Almond Bridge on a 600 mile round trip south to the NEC Birmingham, our event seems a long way off but already most of the layouts are confirmed and the trade support remains solidly behind the exhibition despite the economic climate. There will be a few changes to the usual line-up due mainly to retirements but the philosophy is still to offer a good variety of around 25 quality traders. It is good to know that the Perth show is successful in the eyes of the trade and that modellers come along in increasing numbers to support the event. Once again, it is planned to have two halls and an opportunity offered by more space has been taken to invite Arthur Crawford to bring along his passenger carrying railway.
20th February, 2010: It was pointed out to me today by one of this website's avid readers (no names mentioned but HP knows) that the Exhibition Manager has been quiet for a while. The regulars will see an ever-growing list of traders and infact we are now looking at around 32 because we have some more specialists coming for the first time and, for example, we anticipate additional features such as a book launch at the show. The layouts are more or less all in place now; just two more to confirm. At this time of year, the exhibition seems still a long way off but from past experience, time will fly! I must sit down soon and look at a floor plan!
We are pleased to announce that the show will be formally opened this year by Provost John Hulbert, who along with Lady Provost Mrs Sara Hulbert, will be our guests on the Saturday morning. This is in recognition of the fact that just as Perth & District MRC celebrates its 50th anniversary, so the City of Perth celebrates its 800th year. Isn't it incredible to think that Perth went 750 years without a model railway club? Apologies for my terrible sense of humour!
