I was there for a while this afternoon. Yet another great exhibition.

Some snaps of my time there. Written info tomorrow... Good night.

The descriptions of the displays are added. There are about two dozen displays recorded out of the 70 odd in the exhibition guide. I was there from a bit after 2pm and was chased out just after the 5pm close.

Thanks Ted and the Club for a great show.

Graham,

Thanks for your great efforts with the photos, Angela Adams was the Expo Coordinator with Benjamin Martin and myself as her assistants.

Seeing the photos is a big welcome for me as I didn't really get to see much, fracturing my right leg early Saturday, making it worse by hobbling around all day, taking a fall on Saturday night and thanks to my many friends within the club, convinced to go to hospital first thing Sunday.

From what I have heard every Toowoomba Model Railway Club Inc member present and 'ALL the Exhibitors', took the Expo through Sunday and a successful day and wrap-up was achieved.

I wish to publicly thank all involved, I am out of action for at least six weeks but will be back.

You rest  Ted !
