My SNCF boxfile layout in HO

ready to go to exhibition. I won't reveal more, as I intend to take lots of photos at exhibition on 21-22, and put a short article together for SNCF society, and a bigger article for Continental Modeller.

Very aptly coloured boxes Simon!
A nice touch.
Would this be at that "charity" exhibition headed by Lord so & so? (I really don't know his name, sorry!).
I should have been helping at that but my mate has had to pull out with bad health.
Hope it goes well for you.
John.

yes you are correct John. Have been supporting Lord Eric for many years.

It is only a small exhibition, but it is also a quiet time of year so a useful time to try out new ideas.
Normally it is week earlier, but the way the weekend falls it now clashes with the SNCF society event. Given the distance down to Kent, I am quite relieved no to be going down there, especially as we have also had something else happen this week, so staying close is better, but having something to do is good.
