2 week break

A quiet 2 weeks plus as I have been on my hols, walking in the peaks and a quiet week in Kent.

 

Visited both the Peak rail centre which for me was good for photos of a few wagons and the coach preservation shed and The Midland Railway centre at Swawick. loved the Midland museum the shed with the Duchess and Princess along with the replica buildings being constructed.

I have a couple of K's 6 wheelers to rebuild and seeing how the straps and rods fit together will assist

Someone out there is copying my modelling skills

 

The second week we visited the KESR misses again that P class only got a view from the elevated viewing area at Rolvenden.

 

And also the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch railway. At onetime if it were not full scale and GWR I would turn my nose up at it. But seeing they run over the past 2 yeard at Dungerness, New Romney and Hythe was very enyoyable, in fact they put some of the preserved railways to shame.

 

 

I used to think of them as models, but am realising they are engins in their own right
