This layout is the reason I am going to Telford. The cats are giving me a day off and boss woman wants a day of peace and quiet.

I'm hoping for a couple of hours of line side spotting on Sunday as well fellas, when things quiet down a bit. V V Excited to see Love Lane in the flesh, the last time I saw it it was some track on bare boards in PJH's shop!!

Janet is thinking "they'll never get all that lot in the van" and she was right, but with the help of a couple of car boots Love Lane is on its way to Telford. See you there.

Kinda set up...

It looks like I will have a birds eye view of Love Lane as Chris and I are on demo stands opposite the layout

More chicken than eagle though! I suspect that, apart from your own visitors, all you two are going to see will be a lot of people’s backs!

I do hope they will have a few “fronts” too!

Here's some shots of Love Lane at Telford taken before the doors opened.






Although I have been involved with this project it was the first time I had seen the back drop. This is stood back a couple of feet from the back of the layout so the operators can stand.
Looking at it from the punter's side I found that that the operators were un-noticed due to their pale blue shirts blending in with the back drop.

Morning Col,

The back drop looks amazing, have you any details of the supplier please. I have used the ID backscenes and I'm not happy with the results so far, so maybe I will go for the same sort as you guys.

Cheers,

Martyn.

The backdrop is home grown Martyn..

It's printed on vinyl, from a picture by @Mudhen

Think I accidentally got some wagons or something in one...
