DETAILS OF THE DEMONSTRATORS & DISPLAYS ATTENDING THE 2010 SHOW
David Buckingham, Weston super Mare.

A display of various Large Scale (G) narrow gauge locos and stock with a mainly US logging and small railroad theme.  None of the locos look out of the box new and most have been changed considerably and weathered. Also on display will be various railcars often converted from normal road cars, which were used in sparsely populated areas in the US to save costs.

Derek models architecture as a means of producing drawings for sale on his website. This approach safeguards any copyright arising from photographing other peoples' property. He works in a remote village in Cornwall and models English and overseas buildings following the principles of Roye England, the founder of Pendon Museum. The work is time consuming, but the results are very satisfying. Why not visit his website.  
Mike Alderton

Do you know your taper boilers from your conical or parallel boilers? Do you know your A1A from your CoCo or BoBo bogies! If not, then perhaps you might like to visit the demonstration stand of Mike and Wally and see how boilers can be marked out and rolled and how bogie drive mechanisms can be made to fit almost any application. Boiler rolling demonstrations will take place on Saturday and Sunday.  Wally and Mike will be happy to assist in any way possible. You will, of course, be free to ask any questions throughout the demonstrations.
Jeremy Denis

Jeremy has been building in 4mm for about 25 years and it all began when he was unable to get either a ready-to-run model or kit of a certain GW wagon. So, with the help of model shop owner (Max Williams), he bought a book of wagons plans and some white metal parts and proceeded to construct a model of the wagon. He was bitten and decided to replace all his rolling stock. Jeremy uses an extensive and still growing library of books to ensure that the models are as accurate as possible. All are made from 0.5mm thick card with the walls of vans, wagons and coaches made double thickness to give strength and stability. Opening wagon side and end doors using his own design hinge system. Coaches are painted internally before assembly and fittings, battery boxes, vacuum gear; buffers and brake gear are of white metal. Bogies are also scratch-built with the springs being made of cartridge paper and axle boxes from white metal.
All vehicles are fully detailed inside with luggage racks, seats, arm rests, table lamps and sheets and blankets on the bunks in sleeping cars. Corridor connections are made from concertina'd black paper and stay together on curves.
