RMweb Premium 45156 Posted July 3, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 3, 2012 Anybody travelling from the North on the 05.50 off Glasgow to Crewe? I'm booked on that one from Lancaster, and perhaps we could meet up on the train for a coffee and a chat? Also, I am still using a walking stick on bad days, and might need to scrounge a lift to the station after the do (I'm booked on the 16.35 off Stafford) if anybody could be so kind? Thanks..

RMweb Premium 45156 Posted July 3, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 3, 2012 We'll make sure you get looked after on that one Stewart. Thanks Andy - I can probably make it from the bus stop to the venue in the morning, but after a busy day where I'm on my feet a lot, I still get very tired.

5 C Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Just to underline what Andy Y and others have said, this is a fabulous day out. It's a real chance to get up close and personal with some of the awesome work on this forum in a way that's not always possible at an exhibition. Last year Tim very kindly let me examine his Stanier Mogul, which was worth the journey alone. That, coupled with the catering and the great atmosphere, I would urge anyone who is undecided to make the effort to attend if at all possible. You won't be disappointed. Unfortunately, I can't make it this year. Foolishly, I signed up for a 5 week Bootcamp at my gym (don't ask) and then I'll be venturing towards SWAG territory for a 40th birthday later. Looking forward to seeing all the pictures and I'll make sure to block out next year's date as soon as it's available. Andy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trisonic Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 John, Can you do one for me saying: "Once again trisonic cannot make it, I am his proxy...." One day I will make it and turn up without notice and surprise everyone. They'll probably be too busy stuffing their faces to notice. Best, Pete.

RMweb Premium 45156 Posted July 4, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 4, 2012 45156, I will be driving past Lancaster on the way back (travelling up from Oxford in the morning) so if you want a lift back up country, no problems. Thanks for the offer, but I've already got a return train ticket booked and paid for (non refundable), and TBH I don't get too many chances to travel by train these days, so unless I have a problem with the leg on the day, I'll keep your kind offer as plan B.

iL Dottore Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I too send my apologies... Wife, Work and Dog (in no particular order) have conspired against me... What's a poor railway modeller to do?
