With a nod to a lyric from the Genesis track ‘Deep in the Motherlode’ from their ‘Then there were three’ album (did I not mention before I am a bit of a Genesis geek) Fisherton Sarum is celebrating its 10th birthday (its first exhibition was in back in 2006) by heading West on Saturday 30th July to be at the Barnstaple Model Railway Club exhibition.
This one day show is organised by my friends at the Barnstaple MRC, and has gained a reputation for enticing good quality layouts to North Devon. The exhibition is being held at: Christ Church, Bear Street, Barnstaple EX32 7BU.
It is open to the public between 10.00 am and 4.00 pm
Competition Time!
It is a first for my blog, but I thought I would have a competition, as a celebration of Fisherton Sarum’s 10th birthday, for you my readers to be in with a chance to win a mint boxed and brand new Hornby R2620 Urie N15 King Arthur Class number 746 ‘ Pendragon’ in Bulleid post war malachite green livery.
So how do you enter…
Barnstaple is not the furthest west that Fisherton Sarum has appeared, so to be in with a chance to win all you need to do is work out where Fisherton Sarum has so far made its furthest west appearance (it has been mentioned on this site before so check the archives…) and send your answer, naming the town, to me by email here, before the 28th July and I will draw at random the winner from all the correct entries during the Barnstaple Exhibition on the 30th July.
Good luck in the competition and come and say hello if you are able to get along to the show in Barnstaple on the 30th.
As your layout will be operated west of Exeter does this mean you will not be permitted to run the Merchant Navy class thereon?

A good point well made but the venue for the exhibition does not affect the location modelled otherwise i would have been in trouble at Doncaster!

Great to see Fisherton Sarum live in Barnstaple! Thanks for putting me straight on one or two things about Merchant Navy locos and Millholme kits. Keep on blogging…
