BRISTOL 'O' GAUGE GROUP [BOGG] 2015 SHOW


BRISTOL 7mm EXHIBITION

Sunday 25th January 2015 [10:00 am -- 4:00 pm]


This is the first major exhibition of the year and is once again being held at the University of the West of England (UWE) in Bristol (Filton Abbey Wood). 

It's their 20th show and will have 14 confirmed layouts on show as well as over 60 trade stands, with refreshments and facilities for disabled access as you would expect. 

Admission is £9 but members of the O Gauge Guild can get in for £7 upon presentation of their membership card (so don't leave home without it)

For directions to UWE campus and further details on layouts and trade can be found at the BOGG 2015 website here;

http://www.bogg7mmexhibition.com/

nearest stations are Filton Abbey Wood for local services from Bristol and Wales, and Bristol Parkway for services from London, Swindon and West. 

As it's only on the Sunday its a fair chance there's service engineering around the country so best check on Network Rail in case that affects your travelling. 

Have a great show.
