    I'm going. Driving all the way from Canberra via the fascinating Hay Plains. :) But taking the scenic route via Melbourne on the way back.

    Cheers

    Gary,

    These days I'm Glenbrook Beach, NZ based but I am considering attending. Might have something of particular interest to Australian N scalers.

    Well, shoo-oot, Cooter. Y'all have to put them there wheels back on. Wheel replacement party anyone?

    Great! Pick me up and we'll share fuel and driving, et al. :)

    It would be great to see you again, Mark. If you are heading this way, I may ask for a couple of things to be brought along... you know, samples etc. ;)

    Certainly are. Generally there's at least 3-4 dealers attending, George, for the most part N Scale specific. It's a matter of where it is held since it makes it's way around the nation. Last convention (2005) was in Brisbane and had the two major local hobby stores (JandJ and Austral Hobbycraft), one from Sydney (The N Scaler), one from Melbourne (RailNthusiast) and a few other specialising in Australian outline. (James correct me if I missed someone.)
    Not sure who will front in Adelaide, though.

    That would be a real hoot to have you attend George! ;) Bring plenty of Train Worx DRGW hoppers with you :)

    Not good Paul,sounds like too much circle work in the local car park there ;) Time for a trade in on the new VE platform,driven one yet?If you dont want to buy one,DONT drive one,if you do test drive one,you'll only want to buy one then,SSV that is.


    Your on!There will only be one seat left,so it's your's if you want it!

    What are the tentative plans so far, and who else is heading down with you? Registered yet?

    Is that the new Ford Commodore or Holden Falcon? I'm :confused:
