RMweb Premium TheQ Posted October 20, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 20, 2015 I'd Love to see Tidworth again but I don't suppose there's much chance of seeing for some time, as I live on the east coast and it's 230miles to get there. There's not much chance of seeing the layout either..... as much as I'd like to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless your MRC has a show and needs a layout? Thanks for the information, Shenfield is 2.5 Hours each way plus the show so It's a bit closer Even the Army turned down the use of the Disused RAF Coltishall as too Remote!! We are a long way from anywhere! Our MRC does have a show http://www.broadlandmodelrailwayclub.co.uk/3.html held in early October each year, I'm not sure how far our budget runs to for a distant Layout, I'm just a gofer as far as the show is concerned. I'm also not sure where you're based, but Tidworth for instance is just over 4 hours from Aylsham, depending on the traffic round the M25, though from days distant past I used to travel Swindon, Oxford, Buckingham, Bedford, Cambridge, Norwich. :locomotive:and I live further away than that out on the coast!

RMweb Gold PaulRhB Posted October 21, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 21, 2015 . I'm there now!Where's there? Still waiting on the meeting for our new roster but as all the other chaos is finally staring to be commissioned hopefully that unknown will be solved by Crimbo! Maybe we need to persuade Ian to let us have a post privatisation takeover for one night only 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beresford Junction Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I know I was only there four hours on Sunday but took advantage of the sun. I didn't take much video and I suspect what I have will end up on the cutting room floor due to "inappropriate language" in the background....

RMweb Premium TheQ Posted October 23, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 23, 2015 (edited) Currently in Ludgershall but moving soon to Andover.Ludgershall I know, my great great and great grandfather owned Highfield house and the coal yard which was next door, Rawlings court is named after that side of the family. The memorial hall was built on land from the family. My mother was born nearby at Aughton, and my brother in Short Street. I went to St James primary school and Tidworth Down secondary modern boys school from 1963 to 1971. I had family living in Butt street, Butt close, st james street, short street, Astor cresant. But ludgershall has changed greatly since my part of the family left in 1971. (To the outer Hebrides!!) I was last there in 96 as I stopped for coffee on my way to do some work at Boscombe down. One of my earliest memories of the railway there is the workmen burning the wood left over after the destruction of the station. Next year solid work on modelling Ludgershall station (and collingbourne) should begin instead of just bits and pieces I've collected or made so far Edited October 23, 2015 by TheQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was me thinking I'd missed it as well. Mental note made to make the trip down next September. The kids will just have gone back to school and I'll need a day out and a beer. I'll be sure to say Hi. I'm just building the boards for the next layout and looking at the recent pics of Tidworth, I need a static grasser. Badly. Outstanding work on the lineside greenery... it makes such a difference to the overall look. Great stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
