Another modelling challenge?
As a PS to last time, and Swiss trams, this Basle “piggy tram” defies description! I came across it whilst browsing the internet, and had to look at Google Images to check it wasn’t a Photoshop special. Perhaps it’s an ideal way … Continue reading

ESNG AGM – 16 July 2014
It’s AGM time again. The chance for the members to rebel against the committee and stretch out the meeting for hours debating minor issues – then vote them back again to continue running the club. But tonight was different – … Continue reading

ESNG meeting – 5th June 2014
Not much to report on this meeting. A good turnout and an interesting variety of trains running. Pick of the bunch was the new Bachmann ‘Deltic’. They have retooled this already good model into something special. The end curves on … Continue reading

ESNG Exhibition 2015 !!?!!
