  • Well, that was a brilliant show!
    So much to see and to do!
    Key Model World Life! was undoubtedly a huge success, and literally was a record breaking show thanks to Pete Waterman and Railnuts: Making Tracks layout!
    world record Breaking' in fact!🙂
    despite a few grumpy sods, 95% of the folks there enjoyed it! and I hope it becomes a staple show in the future for years to come!

    I said, on your earlier film, that we should wait and see before downing it. As an exhibitor (St Fayre Rhianne) it was the happiest big show I've been to for a very long time. The atmosphere, from both exhibitors and visitors was wonderful, and we had a really great time. Well done, to everybody involved with the organising of the event.

    Good to see you Saturday Craig. I agree with your comments about the show and congratulations to Mike Wild and the NMWL team for putting on a great new event. Cav and Alex are always good to talk to about our favourite subject. Shame Richard didn’t react to your plot to steal the new Accurascale Class 31, that would have been fun to watch!

    Your's and Peachy's were the two KMW Live videos I was most looking forward to seeing. Instinctively, I knew you were going to cover the aspects of the hobby that would be of greatest interest but the highlight of all the videos I have watched this week was the fantastic footage of that Ginster's pasty.

    Thanks for taking the time to film while enjoying yourself, that dark shed layout looked amazing, the lighting work looked so realistic. Tbh I'd be happy to go to any model railway exhibition so I don't really get people who moaning that it somehow wouldn't be as good as Warley or whatever, given the years of isolation over the pandemic I don't think anyone should take for granted the effort put into hosting any show for the public. As for that sign? "You can burn that one!"

    Hi… I agree the show was excellent. Plenty of room to see everything. Reasonably priced food and drinks.
    The standard of the military aircraft and vehicles was excellent especially the military dioramas.
    The excavator in the video costs in the region of £15000, according to its owner/operator.
    Puts the complaints regarding the cost of our hobby in perspective 😂
    It was very nice to meet and chat with you.

But I dont really need another expensive hobby. Ive got the class 31 on preorder too. I'm glad its not too long to wait now.
    It was a bit of a trek from the station along that corridor though hehe

    Craig, what an uplifting video, only wish I could have been at the show. This show reminds me of the huge RC aircraft shows which used to take place at Sandown Racecourse in theb1990s run I think by the Esher MAC. These were some of the best shows that I ever visited , I went for the RC Aircraft and Helicopters but so enjoyed all the other modelling on display with the whole of the ground floor in the exhibition hall dedicated to railways. Although at the time all my energy went into RC helicopters the fantastic railway layouts on display planted the seed of model railways to which I eventually migrated. As you say the beauty is the richness of the modeling diversity and the cross pollination making everyone a winner!

    Hi Craig. Great news that the show was such a success. I couldn't go due to a clash with other events but would have loved to have been there. That Accurascale Class 55(?) was brilliantly detailed - what a shame I don't model in OO gauge! The layouts were great, but I would have liked a little bit of data on them, e.g. scale. See you in the next video.

    Great video of the show. Reminds me of a show I used to go to with multiple arms to the modelling hobby. Even though I won’t get a chance to go to any shows at the NEC let’s hope it carries on and grows. The cross overs between the different genres can have a great effect on new (and old) modellers.

    It was a great show. It was busy but not crammed like GETS, as there was more space for the crowds to circulate, even though by midday on Saturday, there were a lot of people milling around, the vast majority of which were having a lovely time and expressing their positiveity about the hobby. I really enjoyed it.
    I saw you wandering around with Jenny, but didn't interrupt you as I thought you deserved to enjoy the show - at least for a short while - without a camera in your hand or people stopping you every 10 yards.

      Apparently they are looking to extend next year into another hall. Maybe to fit in slot car circuit modelling or put in extra demonstration area's. I know at the Midlands Model Engineering show they do have a large boating pool set up for the RC model boats to sail in. These were on display at the Key Model World show but were statically on show and like the RC trucks they are more interesting to see running.

    I thought the show was brilliant. The layouts were great but equally as amazing were the other modelling hobbies on show. Those model aircraft were amazing to view. The RC trucks were fun.
    Hopefully next year it might be bigger and according to Key Model world they are looking at obtaining a second hall, which could introduce slot car racing circuit modelling, a RC boating pool for the remote control boats and possibly a section on model engineering like the minature traction engines or stationery steam engines.

Also there is the Modellbau show in Friedrichshafen which is multi faceted. Both are far larger than this show and well worth visiting.

The Model Engineering show held at Alexander Palace and Olympia over the years (think it no longer exists but there is a version up north) was very similar in that it brought all model disciplines under one roof, even had actual flying rc models in one of the halls. Sadly wasn't able to go to this years show but hope to make it next year as it very much reminds me of the old Model Engineering show.
