The Christmas and New Year were well and truly over, and we had a dozen or so members at last night’s meeting.  It was especially good to see Sean, and be able to congratulate him on a small addition to the family.

We got the usual circuit up and running, and an interesting range of trains were on show.  David’s Pennsylvania and Union Pacific dooglebugs made a pleasant change from the usual multiple units.  British contributions included a rather nice nuclear flask train.  Paul’s long Japanese goods trains were present – I always wonder how Kato and Tomix make things stay on the track, when other manufacturers’ stock derails?

We spent some time talking about the ESNG annual show (on April 12th ).  It’s coming together, but I have a god bit of planning still to do.
