This meeting was always optimistic, between Christmas and New Year, but it offered an opportunity to escape from the family for the afternoon.  In fact, five members turned up, and we were able to have a pleasant afternoon running trains.

I went pre-grouping with an SECR mixed goods, that was good to watch crawling around the layout.

To be joined by Allan’s more modern coal train, including his personalised Christmas wagon.

Trains passing…..

Local goods with a Terrier….

Brian’s Gatwick Express.

And Frank ran a selection of trains…

And I nearly forgot to add Brian’s video…

Next meeting, 2026.  Happy New Year!
