The latest meeting was the subject of much frustration with the tramway. Martin struggled on tweaking the track (seriously under gauge in parts ) but the running was still extremely poor. Discussion was had regarding what to do, however Martin resorted to the nuclear option of a hefty metal block and sandpaper which to my surprise resolved the issue. A small ( major) issue of the pcb delaminating at the crossing to be addressed next.

As a pleasant diversion Paul Hodgson brought along his portable workbench and DCC controller and demonstrated a recently converted 30 year old NE 0-6-2 which ran extremely well. He also took the opportunity to show his Southern Pacific AC12 http://pacific-western-rail.com/view_product.php?ProductID=174690 which we watched lapping the part build CCMR new n gauge layout what a beast that is

If your in the area CCMR show 23/24 January and although no 2mm on show it is a nice friendly show
