Hi Old Gringo,

 

Great post and publicity for the open day.

 

It might be wise to take down Ted Talbot's email address though.

I know only too well the issues around having an email address posted in the public domain.

Mine was used as a contact for our local triathlon club when I was treasure.

I was getting up to 500 emails a day after spam filtering before I gave up and closed the account.

We will be there with our layout "Lowick" and hopefully some new LNWR kits and RTR wagons.
