Blackpool Model Tramway Exhibition

The ever popular Rainy City layout featuring Manchester trams of the 1920s was in attendance again

The Blackpool Model Tramway Exhibition was held at Cleveleys Park Methodist Church for the second year running, right next to the Blackpool tramway and just a few steps from West Drive tram stop in Cleveleys. The event was well attended and was yet another successful show due to the work put in by exhibitors and organisers. The layouts were in a variety of scales, with many being 4mm. I will try to give the scale where they aren't 4mm, but I may not always get it right.
