ESNG meeting – 19 June 2024
A very pleasant afternoon and evening today. Six of us turned up for the working party, and we got some useful work underway. Electrical contact was poor in a number of places in the fiddle yard, due to someone (probably … Continue reading

After a slight diversion to the ESNG meeting, back to Allan’s photos of the exhibition down at Robertsbridge. Today we have the other layouts on show. There was no show guide, so I have been unable to identify a couple … Continue reading

ESNG meeting – 26 May 2024
Much as I enjoyed my holiday, it was good to be back running trains again this Sunday. We had a generous 11 members attending, too, that meant that I could doze in a chair and natter rather than doing anything … Continue reading
ESNG meeting – 12 & 15 May 2024
Maxine and I have just had a pleasant week on the south coast at Poole, so I missed two meetings. But here are a couple of photos from Allan, and Brian’s video….. Brian also spotted the magnificent ‘Clan Line’ passing … Continue reading
