Utrecht, Jaarbeurs Utrecht, 24-26 october 2008

Jappe Bruk was on the front page of Eurospoor Express February 2008.
At Jaarbeurs the vehicles could enter the exhibition hall, and unloading could take place right at the stand..
At Thursday morning 9 AM we where almost alone in the exhibition hall. It is difficult to understand that in only 24 hours, layouts from all over Europe would be exhibit in the hall.
It is always exciting when the layout is tested after the erection. Every thing was working properly and we could take a half days off from trains, and make a visit to the canals and mills in the area.
Friday at 10 AM every things was ready for opening the Eurospoor 2008. The exhibition area was well arranged with space between the stands and with many benches.
A total of 18.500 people visited Eurospoor 2008 during the 3 exhibition days. There where both quiet and busy periods at Jappe Bruk.
Saturday turn out to be the day of the photographers. It was necessary to make special photo opportunities the photographers.
Shunting at the turntable in the Jappe fiddle yard was once again of large interest for the visitors.
