Thanks to those who came along to a successful day. Numbers were up by nearly 20% compared to last year and more people brought along stock to run on the layouts and the test track, which added greatly to the fun.

 

A few photos to finish off, unfortunately only taken on a camera phone.

Club member Paul Lindsay-Scott's showed his layout 'Brookford' for the first time, earning a lot of praise.

 

Paul's LSWR T3 shares the track with a visiting King Arthur, showing contrasts in Southern Railway motive power and cleanliness!
