Peaks look great Peter

Those 20's look great Peter, I will sort out that green one for you that we spoke about.

Well done team for setting up the poll again, I enjoy going through it and voting.

Thanks John

Nice photos as usual Peter, hope all is good down under, working on a plan to get down under in 2 or 3 months time.

OK Thanks John

Hi John,

Has there been any development about aquiring his paints.

O Gauge looking good Peter.

Hi Peter,

Getting back to your class 20s, I always have trouble getting the body on and off, especially the cab end. I have improved it by filing all the edges of the chassis and cab body where they touch, it is a very tight fit.

Your 7mm stock is looking good. As you can imagine my O gauge is stored at present, garden railway shut for winter and no chance of getting to New Milton club layout for a run this winter with the lockdowns. So concentrating on my loft OO which is 1960s at present and it is finally getting some scenics after all these years.

Best Wishes

John

Hi Peter,

I had forgotten about your plans for this layout, do you think you will resurrect it one day, sounds like a good plan, and will it include overheads?

Best Wishes John 

(Going through and catching up on old stuff during lockdown)

Some more great photos Peter, always enjoy seeing them.

Nice photos as usual Peter.

Hi Kevin,  I look forward to seeing it at an exhibition, I will remind Andy Picton at Brockenhurst.

Some more nice locos photos there Peter.

Thanks Kevin, Good photo especially with the cars as well.

Hi Kevin,  Great to see Leaford again at the Brockenhurst Exhibition, did you get any photos showing the Grainflow Polybulks?

We were pleased to have Leaford at Brockenhurst this weekend just gone, it performed well and was popular with our members. I think we did well to fit in seeing as we did not have the dimensions for it until Kevin arrived. Hoping to see photos of it with the Grainflow polybulks in service. Unfortunately I did not take any photos of it myself.

We also had Beechshire by Keith Naish for it's first outing which made it a good show for Modern modellers.

I have checked my old Exh guides and Leaway Park and Hollybank Depot were both at Brockenhurst in May 1990, they were also both at Romse in September 1990.

Thanks for the plug for the book Peter, glad you liked it. Waiting for some reviews to appear in the mags now.

Regards John
