2014 London Engineering Show

As usual the Society was invited to have a stand at the London Model Engineering Exhibition and as usual the exhibits were organised by Aidan Favell.

This year we had Andy & Phil Devenport’s Basset-Lowke Atlantic and Aidan’s own Lister powered ‘Coughing Polly’. Both generated plenty of interest and those of us on the stand were kept busy over all three days answering questions and having a general chinwag.

 Attendance at the show was up over 10% on the 2012 show, a fair comparison because the 2013 show was badly affected by snow.
