Andrew P Posted March 3, 2016 Author Share Posted March 3, 2016 A final check through my Check List this morning to ensure everything is in one place ready for loading into the Car on Saturday Morning for the shortish trip to the Mansfield Show. I will collect the Layout from the Clubroom tonight and then it will just be one box with Locos and Controllers plus the usual tools and a High Chair to be loaded later. I'm looking forward to seeing some Old Friends there and also meeting some R M Webbers for the first time as well, please come over and say Hello. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Ray H Posted March 6, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 6, 2016 Some great pictures Andy. I'd be pleased if the standard of my pictures reached that of your so called poor quality ones. I think you do yourself an injustice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielB Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 It was great seeing yourself and West Shed at Mansfield today. Sorry I couldn't chat for longer but I had to get back to West Allen Street. The playing card system worked wonders, by the way. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jock67B Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Hi Andy, It really is great to see what I consider to be some lovely images, especially so well weathered, and there is no quicker way to Joock's heart than to show that beautiful Jubilee! Glad you enjoyed the show, and all your friends there look very happy indeed! I've just put a fairly long post on ERs if you want to catch up and save me writing it all again mate. Once more I'd like to thank you very much for all you did for me, keeping people as up to date as you could, which Joanna and I really did appreciate! Keep up the good work, and please give our love to Dee. Kind regards, Jock. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gparr Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 This layout has inspired me. I have re-ignited my love of Model Railways. This has been aided by my step-daughter (10) having a keen interest. Been slowly building a collection of stock. I (well we) have an 8x4 board ready for a tail-chaser, but I kept an off cut of 4x2 to do a small depot to do something a bit more realistic to test my skills. I had thought about doing two 1x4 panels, and can now see what can be done. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
