binny Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Hi Andy It was a super day. Operating your layout was a joy, even if I did make a mess of things at times. It was really nice to meet Clive M and I am glad he had a nice time-sorry to hear about his journey home though. No more talk about changing your layout or going to O gauge or we will have to seriously think about throwing that bucket of cold water over you!!!!! I hope that the show was successful for the club. There certainly seemed to be plenty of people there all day and there was a lovely atmosphere. Best wishes Jeff (binny) 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ELTEL Posted December 13, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 13, 2015 Sorry I could not make this weekend but two days at Warley and 3 days at Manchester last weekend pretty well exhausted my brownie points. Glad it went well Terry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Anotheran Posted December 14, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 14, 2015 Some fantastic pictures of the stock Andy. So nice to see West Shed with some proper locomotives on it Gutted that a family situation meant that Aidan and I weren't able to come along, even more so when I see all the other rmwebbers I could have met for the first time. Don't know if West Shed will be at your open day at Easter, but we're planning on coming to that after missing this weekend. Even if not we'll still plan to come as Aidan and I both want another look at the club O gauge layout! Glad you had such a good time and sorry that we weren't there to say hi and have a drive! Kind regards, Neil 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share Posted December 14, 2015 Cheers George, Jeff, Terry and Neil, I'm not sure about West Shed at Easter, if it is there it will be either Western Region, Midland Region Steam or 1980's Blue Diesel Western or Midland Region with Sound. It all depends on whether the Committee will have me there, mind you I am one fifth of the Committee, hahhah. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allegheny1600 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Hi Andy, All, Glad to see you had a great time, I guess many mince pies were consumed! Like Terry, I would have like to have come down but had also used up all my brownie points lately. Cheers, John. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold PeterBB Posted December 14, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 14, 2015 So do I need to build another quickie for Easter, or run WS as something else? Make Mike happy and run WS as something else ... should we add Deesdale Road in its ' home club' at the same time for a change? Cheers, Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
emt_911 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 This is the first chance that I've had to download and sort out the photos of West Shed from last weekends Mince Pie Steam Gala.

emt_911 Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 OK. It'd time to be totally honest about the effect in the first 4 photos. The camera had been in the van for 24 hours and started fogging up once I got inside. I took the risk of using the camera before it had totally dried out. It was great to see that it worked but is in no way reproducible. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
