Diary of Local Events - April 2008

Tractors of Eastern European manufacture will be the theme of the first of this year’s Model Tractor and Literature Shows, which will take place on Sunday 6th April. Billed as the Tractor 2008 Spring Show, the event will feature a small display of full-size Zetor and Belarus tractors. A limited-edition show model of a Belarus 820 Tractor (1/43rd Scale) will be on sale during the event.

The Spalding show is recognised as the largest gathering of its type for farm toy enthusiasts in Britain, regularly attracting collectors and dealers from across the UK and Europe. Expect to find a wide selection of obsolete toy tractors on offer, as well as the latest model releases. There will also be plenty to search for on the many stalls selling literature, books, ephemera and vintage tractor spares. Many of the leading clubs will also be in attendance.


Build Diaries Coming Soon!

Build Diaries document the process of making a model from out of the box to the display cabinet. All the tools, techniques and tips to build fantastic displays can be found here. Each diary has been provided by a NMM member.
