Fareham RailEx 2023 - part 1 - Saturday 7th October 2023

It seems like ages since i've been to a model railway exhibition - was it New Milton in July? - so I made to the train journey to Fareham for RailEx 2023 at Fareham leisure centre.
For this show, I am trying out something new. Rather than showing every layout, I have focussed on layouts that I've not seen before. The reason for this, was that this show had a lot of new layouts for me!
I hope this doesnt spoil your enjoyment of my show coverage.
Layouts featuring in this, part 1, are as follows:
Norwich Central - 7mm O gauge finescale layout in the pre grouping era, featuring Great Eastern and Midland & Great Northern rolling stock.
Brighton East - 4mm EM gauge. A "what might have been" layout, based on the idea that the Kemp Town branch in Brighton had stayed open and made into the 2000's.
Inspired by Freidrichstrasse - 3.5mm HO. A large station set in 1960' / 1970' Berlin, deep behind the iron curtain. DCC sound and smoke features in some of the locomotives.
Lower Exbury - 4mm scale P4 gauge. Another "what if" layout. The layout takes its inspiration from the village of Exbury, in the New Forest. The layout is set in July 1952.
Rossiter Rise - 4mm scale finescale. Now, a confession - I think this layout has featured previously in one of my videos. Anyway, its a different subject, so I will forgive myself! A London based layout, featuring suburban operations on London Transport and the British Railways network.
Stedham Mill - 3mm scale - the original TT gauge model railways. A junction station which connects LSWR and LBSCR branches in West Sussex. 3 rail EMU's work alongside steam locos.
So, thats it for part 1 - keep an eye out for part 2, which will feature some more great modelling.
