Will another wonderful video from you again with lots of videos of different layouts. The hi light for me at this show was the Sunday Tait train that I travel in from Newport to Flinders Street then onto the Showgrounds. Lots of money was spent there and lots of item that where brought back to WA

[@WillJamesRailways]

Many thanks Andrew! Glad you enjoyed it!

That was a really Cool Video, The layouts were great and the the details to these Layouts were crispy clean Video wise and the comments on them was fascinating to listen to, It's certainly a labour of love and my Congratulations to all the Participants.... Thanks Will....

[@WillJamesRailways]

Thank you very much!

[@NicholassTrainChannel]

Nice video Will. I was there on the Sunday. I have to say the Carlingford layout was by far my favourite at this exhibition. Whilst it wasn't massive it was packed with lots of detail and I like how they ran the layout too.

[@WillJamesRailways]

One of my favorites as well Nicholas!

[@StephenArc222]

[@WillJamesRailways]

Will, anotehr excellent Exhibition Report. Certainly looked like a great exhibition, with lots of really interesting layouts. The revamped Dungog looked amazing, and those T scale trains, wow, what details in such a small scale. The Freem009 certainly looks like it is getting a good follwoing, so great to see. Thank you for sharing, and cheers, stay safe, Michael

Freemoo9 looked great Will! It was overall a great weekend out

Thank you!

Darling Harbour layout really reminded me of the old Sydney before it was corrupted by big money. I find this show has more variety Vs what I saw at major Sydney train show. The lighting there made Dungog look so real. Curious how so many layouts are doing the circuit and are revisited so many times. Challenging to put a different spin on them visually.

[@adampage8030]

Thank you, Will, for doing this video, l was unable to attend this year's show. I always enjoy your monthly updates of Australian model trains. One day I'll make it home from the US. Cheers.

[@no.1enginestudios7]

@@WillJamesRailways hey , no problem Will , by the way, please come back to The AMRA model exhibition next year, I 'd love you to see you again ❤️.

[@scottb1228]

I've been hanging out for this one since I wasn't able to make it to the show this year! Looks like it was a fantastic event once again, always good to see Borderline and of course FREEMOO9, hopefully Beechy and Dugong will be at some other events. Was it as hectic on the Saturday this year as it was last year?

[@nazizombie42]

The freemo 009 modules look great. They're quite narrow, are they not top heavy?

[@WillJamesRailways]

Thanks! Well it’s been fine so far! There are a number of wide modules so it’s quite stable!

[@johnd8892]

The AMRA Vic open day at Glen Iris tomorrow on the 22nd of September will be featuring the AMRA Garden group at 14:15 using there much more extensive outdoor layout as well as Murri HO and our large permanent club layout downstairs in the Clubrooms. Next to Glen Iris station and just a gold coin donation to enter. From 10am to 4pm.

[@JuliansTrainsandGames]

Very fitting for this video to be 52 minutes long!

[@WillJamesRailways]

I didn’t even realize until you’ve pointed it out!
