With the chairman back from overseas (well from the Irish Sea), five members turned up for a working afternoon, and another joined us to run trains later.

We made a degree of progress – we could have done more, I guess, but some socialising also took place.  The good news is that version XXVIII of the corner board trolley is up an running, and can be taken as complete.  Derek also tweaked the wheels on the second corner trolley to make if freer running.

We also started fitting additional droppers to the fiddle yard and the corners.  We only got so far with this before a fish-and-chips supper intervened.  We might be able to finish this job next time.

Just a few photos of the proceedings.  As usual, the usual suspects!

Derek’s latest creation…

And Derek’s Austerity’s appear to have been breeding!

I kept things simple with this little tram….

Chris’ Southern region multiple units.

Simon’s super-power….

And t’ther Derek’s passenger train, slipping a bit with 10-up.

And for those of you who think that you have finally escaped from the Dawes holiday snaps, Allan passed on his pictures taken in their shed visits.  Coming soon on this channel!
