ADVANCE INFORMATION:
The 2012 event on Saturday 18th February will be the 20th Narrow Gauge Southwest. The celebrate this milestone the Small & Delightful & Railway Group are planning to hold a much larger event with hopefully between 40-50 narrow gauge layouts (any scale/gauge combination). We plan to do this by having a ‘Small layout’ theme where the majority of layouts will be ideally less than 6ft in length (though this is not a fixed restriction). The group would like to hear from narrow gauge modellers who have suitable layouts available or who will be inspired to build something new for the event.
