Friday afternoon arrival around 2pm for setup on a very pleasant afternoon. Setup and away to the hotel by 3.30pm.
We were located in the West Hall again this year in much the same place as last year on the wall adjoining the main hall.
During the evening we were joined at the hotel by John and Robert.
Saturday morning saw us joined by DDPOTTER and wolly1380 in addition to the crew already here. Danny3 also joined us Sunday.
A blank (non attendee stand space) directly opposite our stand was commandeered at 9.20am, just 10 minutes before doors open
on the saturday morning and was quickly occupied by another table (suitably clothed) and chair. A fourth laptop was pressed
into service testing out Somerset & Dorset (MSTS) and used to demonstrate installing the Black Country Mini Route.
During the weekend we were also visited by a number of UKTS members, thanks for joining us, good to see you.
Chris Youngs latest addition to BrisCard (now at V5) with the addition of the Valley Lines was also given several outings
over the weekend showing off the new section.
Despite not having the DCC Workshop in attendance at these BRM organised events, it doesn't deter visitors from asking questions
about DCC in general, wiring, upgrading, chipping locos etc, etc. It is always interesting to hear some of the tales of woe that
visitors relate to us, what they are doing and how they are going about it. It is equally interesting to hear some of the "my
mate said" anecdotal stories.
Our thanks to the BRM Exhibition Team, Ian, Sam, Sally and Deb for the invitation, the refreshments and the location.
Our thanks to all those that gave of their time to help us demonstrating, to those who dropped by for a chat
and to the members of the public who visited the exhibition over the weekend.
Special thanks also to the crew who help break down the stand and help load the car at the end. Very much appreciated.
