Nine punters out this evening – not bad for August.  It was good to see Duncan along for the evening and Ravi back in circulation.  We only set up a small circuit, as we were working in the middle of the tables left out for the church holiday club, but there were plenty of trains in action from three continents – Europe, Japan and America.

Simon had a lovely Kato Santa Fe F7 consist A-B-B-A.  It’s a tribute to the low current draw on the Kato locomotives that it didn’t overload the controllers.

Even with a full train of tank wagons in tow…..

The four diesels were later replaced by a single Santa Fe 2-10-2…..

Phil was running his new Farish ‘Night Mail’ set, and Allan had this brand new – both model and prototype – locomotive to run in.
