We had a slow start to the evening, with Derek the At sunning himself in Portugal, and the Cha(I)rman suffering from an overdose of early milk rounds. The rails looked a bit empty, as Paul was also on holiday, so no long Japanese trains were on display.
Still, we quickly got a small circuit up and running, and the members trickled in, ending up with a healthy 11 present. It was good to see Chris again, and even better, he rejoined, making Mr App’s evening.
Most of the trains running were old favourites, and I think Phil got to run most of his stock….
I tried out one of my Toronto Peter Witts on the main line. Ran like a watch and coped with all our iffy track joints despite its tiny wheels. The photos below have echoes of the Pacific Electric 4 track sections, but with no overhead, of course….
Yesterday, I got modelling (well at least woodworking) again, building a cover for a module to go to Stuttgart. And today I’m waiting for the postman AGAIN, with my new Dapol Class 33 about to drop onto the mat. Must stop spending money….
Terrible affliction that spending money syndrome… it’ll make a poor man out of you!
