The Moira Model Show, one of the best displays in the country of farm model design and building with its extensive diorama displays, takes place again this year at the Danescroft Equestrian Centre, Lisburn, Co Antrim. The event runs from 4pm to 10pm on Friday 28 October and from 10am to 4pm on Saturday 29 October. John Craig, who joins Peter Niblock on the organisation committee, told the Journal that the event will be bigger than in the past. For model collectors, this is a rare event, with very special handcrafted farm machinery models on display. You can get more information about the Moira Model Show through the Moira Model Club Facebook page or on 0044-7342 352782.
