Bob Hordern Posted February 13 Author Share Posted February 13 (edited) Maybe this was a rash purchase! I was beguiled by the Hatton’s price reduction. I’ll probably sell it on. It is a super loco - DCC with full sound but I should have spent the funds more wisely.🤨 Edited February 13 by Bob Hordern 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoL. Regards, Ian. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Hordern Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 (edited) Latest from Lofthouse The grass is greener now - a makeover that comes 30 years after the original ground work - next layer will be darker. Then getting on with tidying up the yard area. Lastly the traverser is fitted in its new home. Edited February 19 by Bob Hordern 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
