Valley Axe Man Posted May 30, 2017 Author Share Posted May 30, 2017 Back inside for a little while now, and a look at a few more models, Matt Dewhurst's "Collecting the Cows" diorama and his contracting yard, including a very nicely converted Britains bale wrapper to a Mchale that Matt did himself, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valley Axe Man Posted May 30, 2017 Author Share Posted May 30, 2017 And finally it's time to head back to the marquee for the last of the models....and some very nice "Blues" in a Ford themed display by John Dewhurst, including a fine pairing of a Britains based Doe5100 and a JJThomas 95-100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valley Axe Man Posted May 30, 2017 Author Share Posted May 30, 2017 And lastly the 2nd half of my mum and my joint display, featuring a contract slurry spreading team and a small organic pig rearing enterprise, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valley Axe Man Posted May 30, 2017 Author Share Posted May 30, 2017 And lastly, now in time honoured tradition, the perpetual memorial trophy that we have in my dad's memory, was awarded to a display picked by last years winner Meccano Mark Rolston, he actually found the judging a hard choice to pick between two of the displays, but Mark felt that Matt Dewhurst just had the edge over his dad John, based on Matt's diorama being unusual but realistic in a common sight of the cows going home to be milked, Well Done Matt and next year the judges cap will be on you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
