I went along on Saturday for the day with a couple of friends with their toy steam exhibits at this show. The show is one of the highlights on the Garden Railway calender and on top of that, all the money raised by the organisers goes to the Devon Air Ambulance Trust. The show consists of a large number of layouts in all the common scales - 16mm, 7/8", G1, as well as toy steam exhibits and a large selection of traders.
I got lucky and bought 12 yards of Peco SM32 track for £25 and a right hand point for £20 allowing some more progress on the railway when I go back at Christmas!
Not much to really say, so I'll just upload a couple of photos here and put the rest on the Flickr account.
A 16mm Fireless loco - an unusual model!
A Salem Garrett - based on Mamod technology...the urge to build one is strong!
A lovely 7/8" layout complete with working waterwheel!
