The
5BEL Trust ("Bringing Back the Brighton Belle") were on stand 34, and they also had one of the actual Brighton Belle carriages parked outside on a trailer. The weather was a bit drab, but thanks to the
Brighton Half Marathon, about five and a half thousand people trotted past it on Sunday morning.

Daleks, a
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car, a
lot of model trains, an awe-inspiring Lego aircraft carrier, and a Very Very Large scale steam locomotive (the
Green Goddess) that was over twenty-seven and a half feet long including the tender, and weighed over eight tons.
