Had a good day with Codrington, though both hydraulics (Cl14/Cl22) were declared failures before the show opened though we've got plenty of steam traction to standing in.  Both hydraulics have now received fitters attention and should be on the roster tomorrow.

 

Great to see lots of old friends and talk to a few new ones too.

 

Excellent show and its hard not to be drawn to Worcester Road again and again.....

 

Note to self - Must remember to get the camera out tomorrow.

A little snap of Dagworth's leccies. Damned impressive portals, and very nice locos. Definitely a labour of love.

Cracking pictures there gentlemen!

 

Hope the good folks at Oakley Green got their non compliant DCC accessory decoder sorted...

 

Phil

As far as I was I was aware, they were only missing a sound chip from the Parcels unit. Did they have another problem?

Anybody know who these two Herberts belong to?

Yee Gods !!!!!

 

That made me jump a bit :O  :O  :O

 

Looks like it was a good show, sorry I missed it. But I was playing trains operating a layout at Taunton, which was a cracking show actually. Didn't get the chance to take any photos this year, unfortunately.

 

Cheers

 

Neal.

Pictures can't convey the atmosphere Valencia Harbour had; you could almost feel the wind and spray.

 

I had a good weekend fiddling with TT wagons, a nice curry with slow service on Saturday night, and a good quality of layout all round.  As always, well done Mike & friends.

It was good to see the photos of Dent.Took me back to 1970 when I first saw the late David Jenkinson's Garsdale Road in the RM.It awakened me to the difference between a model railway and a "train set". Not a church with a wedding or funeral in progress or a burning house anywhere to be seen!
