Model Show
Another exhibition and HET is on site again, but this time HET arrived with something a little different. It’s the HET model exhibit, and N gauge model. This is a growing project and representation of Carlingford, while not an exact replica it is a work in progress and will take on new objects and personality and the time goes on.
This is a team effort and members help is encouraged.
The exhibition was at Hawkesbury at Clarendon.
The exhibition was a great success and attracted larger crowds than previous years.
Enjoy.

 |
| The model depicts a scene simular to Carlingford, and what better to run of this line but an N scale Red Set, yep a brass Red Set! |
|
 |
| Over head bridge, trucks, cars, fuel garage and general stores. The model is developing slowly. |
|
 |
| A small growing town, early in the life of Carlingford? Who of us can remember the days, the days when every thing was slower and quite. |
|
|
| |
 |
| What is this? Could it be? Yes it is , are Parcel Van, what next?
|
|
 |
| The exhibit attracted a large number of people interested in the brass Red Set, which performed faultless all weekend. |
|
 |
| Reds at rest, awaiting passengers and a little time for people to have a closer look and the models, in a static position. |
|
| |
 |
| The model was in the hands of members all weekend. Chris one of our new members is seen here enjoying the set. |
|
 |
| With Chris demonstrating the model, other items of interest were also on display. Many photos were displayed and for sale. |
|
 |
| The models are very detailed and are made locally, yep, in Australia, go figure. The raw model has features that are left out on some larger scales. |
|

 |
| At rest , it was a long weekend for the little Reds. Any rest is appreciated. |
|
 |
| There were many other exhibits on display, the models were very detailed and shows the dedication of there owners.
|
|
 |
| Some of the displays were very hard to get pictures of, the speed at which they were travelling, with the ambient light. |
|
|
| |
 |
| From all corners of the world the models came, well at least it appeared so, not the American Indian village in the bottom right corner. |

 |
| The builders of some of the models have a real sense of humour, take a look and some of the details on this model. But don’t hang around too long. |
