Scale ModelWorld 2013

There can be few in the modelling fraternity who aren't aware of the fast approaching Scale ModelWorld 2013, now only two weeks away. Often still referred to as "The Nationals" or even just "Telford" it is undoubtedly the Mecca for scale modellers worldwide and this year promises to be better than ever, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the founding of IPMS (UK) in 1963.


A timely reminder for those of you who are IPMS members (UK or overseas) to check that your membership is up-to-date and you have a current membership card with you when you visit the show in order to gain free admission. IPMS UK members can renew on-line here.

At IPMS Birmingham we have three guests from our twin chapter in the USA, IPMS Syracuse, New York State, - John Kesler, Jim Marconi and (Making his first visit to SMW and the UK) John King, attending.

For those travelling from farther afield there is a useful page on the show website giving directions to the Telford International Centre by road and public transport.

Our own stand will be in Hall 1, block 1E. (Grid ref; G4) and we will happy to greet old and new friends, so please drop by and say "Hello".
