Eltham Model Railway Club
AMRA's 2008 Caulfield Model Railway Exhibition




The first running of the AMRA's show after a years break was a debue ayt the magnificant Caulfield Racecourse. Being a first it was going to be very interesting how the venue would work for a model railway show.


"Murranbilla" was there to support the AMRA Vic branch as it was a busy two days indeed. here are some photos of our layout at the show.



More Photos: See EMRC member Jame's photos on his fotopix site:

This camera is self contained - it records sound and video onto a SD card.
