2015 hobby expo layout ideas and preview

photos from the weekend!

it was a success, and i didnt have any issues with kids or adults grabbing stuff. some littler ones tried, and one youngster was in tears because he wasnt allowed to play. i officially love clear tunnels.

the big loader was a mega success. strangely, not many people around my age recalled having one. i thought it was like a childhood staple, going by comments on youtube videos. ive never seen so many adults go zombie before. glazed eyes, mouths hanging open, completely switched off to everything around them.


minis in their nail polish stands, another big drawcard for people.


the layout table with vintage tomy, bluetrack, trackmaster 1 and 2 and the viaduct.


both tables together with a club member


my friend blairs christmas thomas layout, advertising our december show. this one folds in half for easy and safe transport.


blairs island of sodor layout. this comes apart into 3 sections for transport.


all of these pics were taken by my friend kylie, thankfully, as i was completely slack and forgot to take any of my own stuff.
