enginelane Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Social beer is being provided by a local micro brewery called Jolly Boys. Apologies as your accommodation is another 600 metres further away from the Pie Shop when you return on Saturday night but you do get complementary gym membership during your stay! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies as your accommodation is another 600 metres further away from the Pie Shop when you return on Saturday night but you do get complementary gym membership during your stay! Logistics are at an advanced stage, (depending if I can cadge a lift in on Saturday morning,after breakfast) and that's all depends on how much falling down water we get Friday night!!!! Just a bit to far a walk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

long island jack Posted November 19, 2018 Author Share Posted November 19, 2018 Well that was Wakefield, one of the best show I've been to in a while Layout performed well all weekend, lots of interest, especially my card system, also meet a few followers of this thread, hope they all enjoyed the layout. That it for this year, just one exhibition booked next year Stafford, couple of inquires but no paperwork from either yet, this will give me time to plan and build a replacement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

long island jack Posted November 5, 2019 Author Share Posted November 5, 2019 Mick, that leasser will be ok. This is End of the spurs last show of the year, so if you want to see in the flesh, get down to Blackburn this weekend. End of the spurs last exhibition(unless some of those numerous invite come to fruition) will be at Railex NE in July, after which it will be retired, then either scrapped, rebuilt or sold. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium newbryford Posted November 9, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 9, 2019 (edited) Thanks to Ray (and Dave) for leaving me in charge for an hour or so. I brought along a guest loco and as penance, was handed the controller......... ex-Canadian National GP40-2W shuffles around sorting out a few cars. And then departs long hood forward for "elsewhere" Great fun was had operating playing trains. Something yellow beckons for Sunday working at Blackburn.

long island jack Posted November 11, 2019 Author Share Posted November 11, 2019 Enjoyed the Weekend at Blackburn show, just one more show next year, also well done to 29th St wharf for winning best continental layout! As to the future of the layout I've narrowed it down now to two options, sell or convert 2 boards to British diesel outline!! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium newbryford Posted November 11, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 11, 2019 (edited) I did promise something yellow.... Ex-UP B30-7 B40-8 #1847 It had a strange fault - sound was on, but it would stop, pause and then move again...... An internal investigation is required.

It will be a real shame to see "EOTS" vanishing after just one more show, Ray. However, to retain some of it's features, it would be interesting to see it adapted to GB.

long island jack Posted November 22, 2019 Author Share Posted November 22, 2019 I've been looking into the cost of a change over to BR, I've no modern stock etc, VDA's, VGA's Cargo wagons, tanks and loco's and the cost will be eyewatering, so I think it could be a change to sell or scrap! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
