Next year, Please try not to clash with "The Great British Model Railway Show" at Gaydon. You have done this two years running now.

The London show has always been on the same weekend -- that of the clocks changing -- for as long as I can remember.
And (speaking as a one-time show organiser elsewhere) whatever weekend the organisers select, it will clash with some niche event somewhere else. I'm pretty sure that the ROUGOL folk aren't looking at the GBMRS website when selecting the show date, just to make sure that they spite Stuart Winsor.

I don't thing I would call the GBMRS a niche event, it attracts a lot of people.
O well, unless the "Wakefield show" moves back to Wakefield next year,
it'll be no shows for me then, and my money will remain in my pocket. Appologies to all the exhibitors.
I can say now there will be no Wakefield Show next year, but hopefully
RISC OS North show will become the new northern show on a regular basis.

Thank you for the info, the return journey in one day is too far for me to drive these days.

Surely if you are interested in the GB Model Railway Show you might be prepared to travel to Warrington by train instead? :-)
Gaydon is 17 miles from my home, it takes about 20 mimutes and 0.7 gallons
of Petrol!

Good Grief! What on Earth do you drive that consumes petrol at that
rate? A planet destroyer?

Train travel to Warrington, leaving Kenilworth at 07.47, arriving
Warrington central 10.46 would cost me ?64.60 (putting in details for this comimg Saturday). This would seriously affect the amount I have available
to spend on Riscos hardware/software.

Check you maths, round trip 34 miles!
20 minutes there and back too? Pretty good going.
