I think all of us would agree that Dougs reports from the Nurnberg have been absolutely brilliant so informative and the photographs(so many of them) have added so much to his reports. I know we would all say this is a hobby we love and I am sure Doug enjoyed doing all that was doing but because of him we have all the up to date information well before any of the mags.

It has been said before I know "all this and he has to earn a living as well" but He has given time and energy and lots of resources for all of us so Doug Thanks so Very Much.

Nearly 1000 photos of trains and slot cars in 2 days...

Speaking German, French and English to hundreds of people...

And walking around with a heavy SLR, a computer on my back and 15 kg of catalogues...

I met Ben Jones of Model Rail Magazine. I introduced myself as Doug from Model Rail Forum and he seemed interested to see me, but maybe he was just surprised. We didn't have anything else to say so we went our separate ways. I expect he'll have also walked the show getting the next International supplement ready for their magazine.

Ben, if you need any of my photos in Hi-resolution, just drop me a line.
