Pett O gauge open day


 Almost an annual trip. Down to that odd area between Hastings and Rye which feels like a huge village  with no defined edges  Plenty of rummage boxes and the usual multi gauge test track and a softer feel than an exhibition. Time to chat, space to ponder. The 7mm NGA were in attendance (above) which I wasn't expecting with this lovely demo layout on two of the Peco/White Rose competition boards. Really taken with this. The now well-worn comment about these events being 'older' and I still felt like I was the youngest in the room, which doesn't bode well for a decade's time.

  1. Growing up in Hastings, that area to the East always had an element of mystery about it. The Pett 0 Gauge thing is something I miss about Sussex. That 7mm NG layout does look nice and shows that a backscene is not always needed.
