Hi yes that is indeed the case being a long serving group member, along with my 3d printed tanks. There will also be (I hope) many other group members with their tanks and vehicles. Last years exhibition was excellent with many stands for boats/railways/trucks and I think there will be a large water tank for displays of model boats. There will also be a significant representation by traders now we are mainly over Covid so lots of opportunities to buy spares/tools/accessories.
