There has been a lot of interest in having a ‘virtual’ O gauge show especially because the Covid 19 restrictions have resulted in many exhibitions being cancelled. Regardless of whether Guildex 2020 goes ahead or not, the Gauge O Guild Events Team, together with some of our website IT experts are planning to pilot a virtual exhibition on Saturday 31st October 2020. This is currently in the planning stages and details about What is included in the day will be available soon but meantime, visit the Gauge O Guild website for more information:

We are running a virtual diesel gala and vintage bus rally over on Facebook, if anyone would like a look then please join for some fun, it has proved to be a runaway success so far, it might help a little with your planning

Thank you Cliff. Useful to have a look.
We considered a FB Show but have decided for a website based one with a navigation page so that people can visit a variety of areas.
I will keep everyone posted about progress and what will be available.
The show will be free entry to all. Members and Non members.
Follow the link to find out more about potentially participating and what we are planning for the day.

NMRAx has been using the web site live and also live streaming via Facebook at the same time, this is a good way of reaching out to a much wider audience. 4 events so far with a lot of interesting content, with a lot more planned in the coming months.
