Afternoon

Hadn't realised I've not posted an update since March. How time flies.

Clevedon has a few shows this year, starting with the Southampton exhibition this weekend.

Thereafter it'll be at

York - Easter

Epsom & Ewell - April

Oop North - September (provisionally)

 

Also, rather excitingly I can confirm a one off event on Sun 22 Oct 2017 (next year) when both Clevedon and Weston will appear at the same time. This will be the 100th anniversary of the WCPR's opening of the extension to Portishead and the WCPR group have decided to put a show on in Portshead to commemorate the event. It will be a light railway bonanza with a number of Colonel Stephens layouts in a variety of scales. More details will follow as they're finalised. Logistically it's going to be a challenge having two layouts operating at the same but it is for a special event. At this stage I'm not planning on repeating the exercise.

As to Clevedon itself, fitter Hill's cottage is nearing completion and I've planted some trees behind the PW sheds. Photos attached with a temporary back scene. Everything seems to be where I left it and I'm looking forward to having a play next weekend. Do pop by and say hello if you're passing.

Will the two layouts be linked for through running, Andrew?

I have 21 months to work out if that's possible! The layouts are not the same height at present...

As both layouts share the same cassettes for the fiddle yard, there may be a manual transfer going on.

It's the things like extra set of drapes, extra transformer for power supply, extra controller and whether I have enough nuts and bolts. That's the problem when every layout shares the same power supply box!

Strikes me that getting the heights matched is the easy bit! Through running - one way or another - strikes me as a must Andrew.
