« on: January 04, 2008, 15:06:45 »

Enthusiasts are expected to descend on Exeter Hall in Kidlington this weekend to see dozens of locomotives, steam engines and carriages wind their way around intricate tracks. The annual exhibition, organised by the 33rd Oxford (Kidlington) Scout Group, includes trains from across the world dating from the last two centuries (link below.)
http://www.oxfordmail.net/news/headlines/display.var.1941404.0.no_delays_for_scout_model_railway.php

The exhibition runs from 10.30am to 5pm on Saturday and Sunday. Tickets cost ^3 for adults and ^2 for children and senior citizens.

I do hope First Great Western are not involved in this. Nothing would work and the weekend would be a disaster. Well done Scouts, I hope it goes well for you.
