Ixion visiting Aylesbury for Railex 2014

Ixion's UK Director Chris Klein will be joined at Railex 2014 at Aylesbury, Bucks. on Saturday May 24th this year by Australian Ixion Director Lindsay O'Reilly. 

Whilst we won't have a table or official presence, it'll be a chance for Lindsay in particular to meet some of our traders (especially Dragon Models and EDM Models) and customers in person, and take in some brilliant modelling at the same time. Lindsay has seen the stunning layout list, and wonders how he'll have time to do anything except stare, dribble, boggle and drool.

Look for the Ixion badges/shirt/cap - the first on Chris and latter two probably on Lindsay. The difference is explained by this being a normal Ixion promotional activity for Chris, but Lindsay will very much be in Big Ol' European Holiday mode.

So if one of us is in a tie, you can take a guess in advance which one that will be!

Details of the show are at http://www.railex.org.uk/ .

Ixion at the Aus7 ExpO 01/03/2014

Just a reminder to all Australian readers about the Aus7 Modellers ExpO coming up in Sydney on Saturday March 1st. The Aus7 Modellers Group Inc is the premier modellers' association for O gauge modellers, and  - despite the name - embraces not just 7mm scale modellers working in 1:43.5 scale, but also 1:48 scale standard gauge (Victorian and Queensland railways modellers for example) and narrow gauge modellers in both scales. check out the Aus7 website at http://www.aus7modellersgroup.org/

The Expo is going to be a great day, and has been organised to celebrate the 10th Anniversary
 of the founding of the Group. More information about the Expo, happening at the Casula 
Powerhouse Arts Centre from 9am-4pm, is on the Aus7 website.

Sponsored by O-Aust Kits, it will feature the cream of Australia's O gauge layouts and 
modellers, as well as specialist O gauge traders.

Ixion Models will be represented by Directors Phil Badger and Lindsay O'Reilly, and will 
have a display of our models, as well as Hudswell Clarkes, Fowlers and accessories for sale.
We will also have a brilliant DCC and sound-fitted Fowler from EDM Models in the UK. 
Come and say 'Hi', and hear this state-of-the-art model do its thing.
