A little photo report from the new show at Harrogate's Yorkshire Event Centre, which combined the more familiar model engineering displays and traders with model railway layouts, societies and traders. I've tried to show the full mix on show from Friday 10th March, but please feel free to add your own photos to this thread as well.
Goathland by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Goathland layout, based on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway station, which was 'Aidensfield' in the Heartbeat TV series.
Blower Bentley by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Work in progress 1/3rd scale 4.5 litre Blower Bentley model on Pickering Experimental Engineering and Model Society stand.
Annerley by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
'Annerley', a N gauge Yorkshire coast layout.
Heaton Lodge Junction by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Heaton Lodge Junction, O gauge - the UK's largest model railway layout. I could put loads of photos up of this alone given the size of it.
Traction Engine Models by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Traction engines for sale from Legacy Vehicles Restorations.
Grantham by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
'Grantham - The Streamliner Years', OO gauge. This is the East Coast Main Line in the 1930s.
Water Street Sidings by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Water Street Sidings, O Gauge layout by the Gauge O Guild. Based on North Eastern Railway in 1910.
Steam Crane by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
3 1/2" gauge steam crane model on the Rochdale Model Engineering Society stand.
3D Printed Loco Body by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
3D printed diesel outline loco body on the Keighley and District Model Engineering Society stand.
16" Gun Wagon by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
16" gun and wagons modelled in 5" gauge on the Scunthorpe Society of Model Engineers stand.
Shaper Scale Model by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Model of a shaper machine tool on the Stockton & Darlington Model Engineers stand.
Lifeboat Model by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
1/10th scale Mersey class lifeboat 12-006 'RNLB Andy Pearce' on the Ship Modelling Society stand.
Submarine by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Working submarine model on the Rawdon Model Boat Club stand.
Model Aircraft by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Harrogate Model Flying Club display.
Jersey and Sentinel Shunter by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
7 1/4 Inch Gauge Society display. Ex-LSWR B4 'Jersey' and Sentinel shunter No. 4, both formerly used Skinningrove Iron and Steelworks.
HMS Warspite by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Superbly detailed 1/72 scale model of battleship HMS Warspite.
O2 W28 Ashey by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
5" gauge ex-LSWR O2 class W28 'Ashey' on the Leeds Society of Model and Experimental Engineers stand.
Traction Engines TSMEE by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Tyneside Society of Model and Experimental Engineers display.
Speed Models by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Bradford MES have a competition to see how fast a model goes around their raised track. On the right is an indirect drive model, in this case using a ducted fan. On the left is a direct drive model where a racing car electric motor drives the wheels.
Pannier Tank by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Highly detailed 5" gauge GWR 57xx pannier tank model No. 7713.
Southport MEC by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Southport Model Engineering Club display.
Machine Shop Model by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Machine shop model on the York City and District Society of Model Engineers stand.
Edinburgh SME by Daniel Hamblin, on Flickr
Edinburgh Society Model Engineers display.
Hope it goes ahead next year, but with better weather (later in the Spring) and with a courtesy bus from the station would be good. Ended up getting a taxi from York with a few other visitors due to the local trains not running due to various issues caused by the snow.
Regards,
Dan
