Dear all,

 

Just a reminder that we are meeting for the second time next week Wednesday 24th August at 6pm onwards in the Pride of Paddington http://theprideofpaddington.co.uk/Contact-Us-and-Directions%281528568%29.htm. I am waiting for the members list to invite people not connected to the information super-highway! :) Any questions let me know.

 

Anyway hopefully see you there.

a pleasant evening only 3 of us turned up but as its holiday season .... were hoping the attendance picks up.

subjects discussed included

the lack of 2mm FS wheels wheels

up coming new loco kits

a possible source of ready made 2mm FS points ( its a friend of mine who is looking to earn a few bob details to come soon)

A possible meeting room was identified but at 50 pounds was a bit on the pricey side unless we get better attendance

 

the next meet will be sept 21st

West London Groupies I would like to set up a mail list for us and would like to ask for anyone interested to forward me a personal email address that can be used for purely updates to meetings.

 

I have a few goodies that I will reveal nearer the time for the attendees

Thanks to all who came tonight good to see new faces and our numbers were swelled by more than double, chat was had, drink was drunk and more plans planned. As stated before need for home to do some modelling activities for those that want to.. further avenues to follow up :)

 

Lots of <cough> GWR talk and methods and places to carry out historical research. Thanks to Mark.

There's a couple of topics I'd be interested in, although I already made my decision about grey for wagons.

 

Yes and thanks to Mike for the cakes and look at the RP LT Stock. This as the Americans say is the game changer..

Having got my 'prints' from shapeways I have to agree. For tin can trains it really could be the answer for easy to build kits in short production runs.

 

It's a shame that I'm not nearer.

Hi all,

 

Just a reminder that we are meeting next week 23rd November, unfortunately we have not found a room to model in yet but watch this space! So come along to the Pride of Paddington opposite Padding Station at 6pm onwards for friendly chat and a beverage of your choice.

 

Regards

Tom

Gents,

Another meeting and perhaps another place to meet next time, more centrally.

 

If I haven't started it, and if I remember, I'll bring my new Warley acquired GWR "Insixfish" kit from Ntastic.

Its pretty simple, (Dapol chasis included) but would welcome any input to make it up to 2mm standard as opposed to ordinary n gauge.!

Regards,

Myles

Forward planning for December, as indicated by Myles in the post above.

 

1. Christmas falls rather too close to next month's date, so we intend to have the meeting a week early, on Wednesday 14th instead of 21st.

 

2. Alternative venue under investigation by nigelb, in Holborn, but not yet confirmed (which might allow enough space to actually do some modelling, rather than just talking about it). Watch this space for further news.
