Prize Draw competition winner announced...
...and some more train show dates
06/05/2008

Just Trains software worth £100 goes to Mr Mel Latter. Well done, Sir!

He's the lucky winner of the Prize Draw competition we were running at the recent train shows at Alexandra Palace in London and Kidderminster.

We hope he enjoys his prize of £100 worth of Just Trains software, and apologise in advance to his family and friends who might have a job dragging him away from the world of virtual railways on his PC this summer!

Many thanks to all of you who entered the competition and to everyone who dropped by our stand at the shows.

There are possibly more to be confirmed, but we'll definitely be attending a couple more train shows this year - the Flight and Train Sim Show at the Thinktank Science Museum in Birmingham's Millennium Point site on the 8th November, and the Warley Model Railway Club show at the NEC on the 5th and 6th December.

Speaking of shows, congratulations to Just Trains' Simon Martin, who has just passed his driving test and so can soon be roped in to share the driving duties, breakdown traumas and last-minute dashes back to our warehouse to replenish stocks that have traditionally been sorted out by Richard 'SatNav' Slater. Well done, Si!

We'll be back on the 6th May
