Christmas arrivals on the EJ&KLR


James Hilton

600 views

Today was the inaugural running of the EJ&KLR (http://ejklr.blogspot.com) and it has been a wonderful day.

If success can be measured by the size of the smiles then it's been a triumph. The LGB starter set has run faultlessly, nice and quiet and smooth - and easy for my daughter to play with - expecially with the roof that pops off the coach to allow her to load up her Playmobil people.

 

The more grown up LGB coaches are lovely and look wonderful behind the Stainz, and my little diesel shunter is also a fantastic runner - nice and heavy and lovely detail. A little 'American' but then it is based on the Davenport locomotive! Dad and I said we'd make up some custom EJ&KLR transfers for it we think.

So here are some photos grabbed today in the heat of a running session - hopefully I'll have a chance to take some more arty shots in the next few days.

Happy Christmas everyone!

Interesting new project here James, a lot of new avenues to come across and tackle but I'm sure it will be no problem. Look forward to the continuing development. smile.gif

"If success can be measured by the size of the smiles then it's been a triumph" - the look on your daughter's face says it all - it looks to have been an outstanding success :good_mini: :dance_mini: :good_mini:

 

Although my main interests are in 2mm, I also have a 'collection' of LGB in the loft (acquired for SWMBO pending the day we stop moving around the country and settle down :rolleyes: ) and can fully agree that a lot of fun can be had when 'playing trains' with this scale. Having looked at your track plans (especially the fallen over P), I can see some plagiarism coming on <_< .

 

Merry Christmas

Thanks guys - Dad and I were talking about track extensions for January already, although my wife and daughter say we need buildings next!
