ESNG meeting – 16 March 2016

Posted on March 19, 2016 by snitchthebudgie

We thought that we were not going to run trains on Wednesday.  At the PlayDay, the points had stopped working on the fiddle yard, and we feared that the CDU had failed.  So Derek, Derek and Ian had the board … Continue reading →

A fairly quiet PlayDay last Sunday afternoon.  Only five members present, until Allan and Ron arrived mid-afternoon, back from the Swiss Railway Society AGM in Derby.  However, we got a good circuit up and working, and had a pleasant afternoon … Continue reading →

ESNG meeting – 17 February 2016

Posted on February 18, 2016 by snitchthebudgie

No report for yesterday’s meeting, I’m afraid.  I have the poor excuse that I am sitting in Singapore for a week, having been asked to visit and do a presentation at rather short notice.  OK, it’s a hardship posting, but … Continue reading →

Another Thursday meeting, and despite the Chairman and Secretary being cream-crackered, and the Treasurer being sick and mental, we soon had a circuit up and running.  The usual suspects are seen hard at work playing trains….. A good turnout of … Continue reading →

ESNG meeting – 20 January 2016

Posted on January 23, 2016 by snitchthebudgie

Eight hardy members braved the sub-zero temperatures for Wednesday’s club night.  Fortunately the hall heating was working well, and I think it was warmer than my lounge at home.  Mainly the usual suspects, but it was good to see Roger, who seemed … Continue reading →

ESNG meeting – PlayDay 10 January 2016

Posted on January 11, 2016 by snitchthebudgie

Another successful afternoon playing trains, with a reasonable turnout of 8 members.  The usual suspects were, of course, in evidence…. I brought along my 1960’s container train to run.  I still need to add all the chains and shackles to … Continue reading →
