Look forward to re-introducing myself. Am also a BRMA member but unfortunately havnt been able to attend for a few months due to work commitments, regards Glenn Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DougN Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 It was very well attended yester day. Look out for Wellingford & Everstowe 2 of the best layouts there. Both english based one LMS and one GWR. Drop in and say hi to the guys on the BRMA stand. Yesterday I had a good time and got a fantastic amount of things done on the Q6 which had droped back in the progress stakes against the Black Hawthorne and the NER coaches!

RMweb Premium Peter Beckett Posted March 11, 2012 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted March 11, 2012 I will be attending Monday with my grandson and both of us are looking forward to the day. With my son-in-law, I have completed phase 1 of the ground level dual guage track in the back garden (3.5 & 5 inch) and all of Saturday was spent loco running on the track for one of my grandsons birthday. I have a Standard Class 4 4-6-0 3.5" steam loco and a Planet 5" guage electric loco. Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiebrfan Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I'll look forward to chatting with you, Glenn. DougN will also be there with me. Hi SRman, was really good talking to you, show was good too. Hope to catch up again at a BRMA session soon, regards Glenn PS. Absolutely loving your tractors, they sounded great!!

SRman Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Likewise, Glenn, It was great to chat. I had a little difficulty with the noise levels in the hall (old age!!). That was really fortuitous PCM turning up just as we had been talking about him and his Llanbourne layout. The Howe's tractors do sound good. The unrefurb one has the better acceleration thrash while the refurb has the better continuous running sound - both have great spooling down sounds. I had Bryan put different horn sounds on the refurb so they would sound more obviously different in other respects too. There were good crowds there for each of the three days - I believe there were well over 3000 people attending on each day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRman Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 I'm not sure which layout won the polling but I think Wellingford was the most deserving. There were quite a lot of excellent layouts there, though, and all deserve our thanks for putting on a magnificent show. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markeg Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 I attended Saturday and there were some excellent layouts. Wellingford and Evershot were the best, being British. I and my friend Adrian spent nothing other than entrance fee. I took a few shots of Wellingford. Here are a couple. Sorry I missed chatting with you Jeff, next time I am down.

SRman Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 I took a few shots with DougN's camera (I forgot mine!) so I'll have to persuade hime to post those up too (if they came out properly). Sorry I missed you, Mark. I did see you but was tied up a bit. Hopefully I'll catch up with you next time you are down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
