Matford


Re6/6

983 views

Today we had a reunion some of the team after our outing to this year's Scaleforum. It is the first time that it has been put up since the last outing. It has proved a valuable exercise, totally justifiying the decision to retire it from the circuit and rebuild. Every single board joint has moved, with all the associated alignment problems.

 

We have one outstanding show commitment that we will be fulfilling in August this year, but then that's it for this particular incarnation.

As noted on this blog in 'Matford 'New'' we are looking forward very much to the rebuilding with all the new trackwork and track layout and the improved method of baseboard construction. The challenge for us is to keep the 'essence' of Matford but improving on the quality and size.

 

We had some fun with a time warp using CK's visiting 'vintage/preserved' stock!

This little critter appeared from somewhere.

This is a DJH kit and a Kemilway chassis.

This one must have come from the Dart Valley. They've got one of them!
