The show will be open on Saturday 3th November 2018 - from 10am until 5pm and on Sunday 4th November 2018 - from 10am until 4.00pm.
The address of the show is: The Angmering School, Greenwood Drive, Station Road, Angmering,

Despite being organised by the West Sussex N Gauge group the show will include all the popular gauges from N to 0 or possibly even bigger!
Other News
Matt Holloway has added a few pictures of the frames and recent ancillary work to the Facebook page. The work includes splitting the new frames to allow the mill scale to be removed from the three remaining faces of the frames and painting in bonder primer. Sean Smeeth has been hard at work cleaning and painting the horn guides and other parts ready for fixing back onto the new frames.
Matt has reported that the cylinders are being machined as we speak and are likely to be delivered back to Sheffield Park towards the end of the year. He has also said that we are on target to erect the frames (with temporary bolts) by the end of the year, allowing the riveting to commence when the weather improves next year.
