There are many other weekend and
evening fairs, but it is impossible to find a complete
listing in any one place, and impractical in the space we
have here.FOR A FULL LISTING OF TOY, TRAIN &
STEAM EVENTS the following monthly publications
are recommended -
| COLLECTORS
CHRONICLE - toys, trains, character
collectables |
£1.50 |
| COLLECTORS
GAZETTE - diecast & tinplate toys,
dolls & bears |
£1.80 |
| MODEL
RAILWAY ENTHUSIAST - for the
ready-to-run enthusiast/collector |
£2.10 |
STEAM RALLIES are
always a popular attraction over the summer months, and
for some years the best show diary available has been the
"OLD GLORY ANNUAL". However,
this year the information will appear in instalments with
the regular "Old Glory" magazine from March to
May. Now available are the March issue
with free listings of events to end of June: April issue
with events listings July to December, & May issue
with Museums Guide and over £200 worth of really
useful admission vouchers. In case of difficulty
we can supply all 3 issues for only £6 including post
(UK) - saving over £2.
TOY &
TRAIN AUCTION DATES
- these are auctions where
there is usually a good entry of collectable toys and
trains. This helpful information is given in good faith
but without liability - do remember that sales are
sometimes postponed, and that catalogues are often not
ready until a few days before the sale. Satisfy yourself
that sale contents are of interest before travelling -
also check on payment and collection arrangements with
the auction house.
