2008 Exhibition
Thanks to all who attended the 8th annual
Dumfries
Model Railway Exhibition on 17th and 18th May 2008.
Thanks also to all those who supported us in all sorts of ways, the Ice Bowl staff, those who advertised in our guide, the many local businesses that displayed a poster and lots of other hard work behind the scenes.
The exhibition was well attended, with visitors from a wide area, including the north of England, Ireland and various parts of Scotland.
The Ice Bowl is already booked again for next year, 16th and 17th May 2009. The 2009 exhibition web page will keep you up to date with the latest details, but this years lineup should give you a good idea of what to expect!
