The Scalefour Society is very pleased to announce that Advance Tickets are now on sale for Scaleforum 2014.
Last year the show moved to its new venue at the Stoke Mandeville Stadium, allowing it to give more space and better facilities to host exhibits. This year the show promises even more attractions.
These include two large layouts, amongst the biggest that are on show of their type. Calcutta Sidings is set in the Burton-on-Trent area in the early 1990s. The layout measures 52 feet long by 16 feet wide and is a must for those who like to watch varied trains passing including scale length High Speed Trains running at full speed. Another large model that is 60 feet long and very much the work of one person is Epsom and Epsom Town built by Bob Cummins. Set in 1928, the layout shows the colourful engines of the Southern Railway in the Surrey town of Epsom.
To help visitors learn how they can enjoy building models like these, Scaleforum will also have demonstrators, showing everything from how to make a model kit to how to add the final details to bring it to life. And of course there will be the very best of the model trade at the show, so whether you want to buy something new to run on your layout or just a pot of paint, you can find what you want.
