OMG! Gresty Rd shed!
That was the GWR depot at Crewe, and always last on my bunking list after Crewe North and South.
But as you approached the shed there was this unforgettable whiff of toasting oats from the Mornflake breakfast cereal factory....

I have been continuing to get my collection of pre-Grouping road vehicles ready for the show in Crewe in June where I have been invited to demonstrate. In the meantime, I was invited to take some to Taunton last Sunday for the SWAG RMWeb day. The photo shows less than half the collection.

My thanks to John Farmer (Re6/6 on various Forums) for the photo. I hope to see some of you at Crewe.Screenshot 2023-04-29 at 07.29.39.png

Good news on car parking. The majority of the Gresty Rd Long Stay pay and display car park WILL be available for visitors to use. Disabled spaces are those closest to the main stand with plenty of space beyond. Nobody will have far to walk.
We look forward to welcoming you on Saturday and Sunday.

I'll be there on the Sunday along with my usual partner-in-crime Natalie. Looking forward to it. Scalefour North was amongst our favourite shows, so Scalefour Crewe has a lot to live up to compared with that show, but I'm certain that a good time will be had and as always the first time will always present some things that couldn't be anticipated no matter how hard the team prepared.

I'll be there on Sunday. As Kelly said, S4North was a great show so I'm very much looking forward to the new version.

A grand day out. Crewe's a great location, the exhibition hall was just round the corner from the station, really good traders and layouts, and a very nice group of folk to chat to. Thanks to all who made it happen. Oh, and best of luck for tomorrow!
