GWMark Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Prompted by the item I drove away from Wycrail with on the back seat of my car.... ...I thought I would pose the question, what is the best thing you have driven away with? Mark You may notice, the picture is of part of Cement Quay, the now extension that Chris Nevard has added. Sadly, although it is in my car I was only taking it to be stored until the rightful owner could collect it, I don't get to take it home for real! Anyway, I could never pass it off as my own work, it is far too good for anything I could produce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rule number one (which I learnt on the Friday before the show), when extending a layout, be realistic about what you can get into the car BIG THANKS (I guess I'd best repay you by getting a few shots on BSM in GWR mode next time I pop up) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Graham_Muz Posted November 8, 2009 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 8, 2009 Well I wanted to make sure it got transported back to out clubrooms in style (Cement Quay meets Jaguar leather!). I am not sure who was the most excited to have been given the privilege GWMark or his Son Daniel! I am happy to advise that of course it is now safe and sound and enhancing our clubrooms.
