Seven members again tonight, and a relaxed evening playing trains.  The treasurer returned after a touch of covid, but it must have affected him as he forgot to collect the subs from two members. It doesn’t take long to set … Continue reading →

Posted on March 14, 2023 by snitchthebudgie

A reasonable turnout of seven members on Sunday, especially considering that a number of people dropped out from illness and other problems.  We soon had a circuit up and running, and having Neil, Sean and Lucas attending meant that there … Continue reading →

ESNG Open Day 2023 – a month to go

Posted on March 8, 2023 by snitchthebudgie

The modelling mojo has been rather low recently.  And as regulars here will notice, I’ve been a bit short on ideas for posts.  I need to rearrange the railway room, I think, so I can find things. But I have … Continue reading →

We met for another pre-meeting work party, and the five of us sorted out a number of odds and ends on the fiddle yard.  In particular, we think that we have fixed the microswitches that were playing up, and added … Continue reading →

A quiet but sociable last meeting for February – 6 members present.  We knew that several people were otherwise engaged, so we settled for a quick 2×0 layout, and got down to running trains. Long and sometimes fast trains passing … Continue reading →

Random thoughts

All sorts of odds and ends today. I was amused by these cartoons.  All too true! Mojo has been a bit low for railways this week.  So I did a bit more on my German WWII command vehicle for a … Continue reading →

I guess the last post had my favourites from Tonbridge.  But there were plenty of layouts to see, and here are most of the rest…. We’ll start with Feltham Road (OO).  Loco shed layouts are the current in-thing, I guess, … Continue reading →

Tonbridge MRC show 2023 #1

Posted on February 18, 2023 by snitchthebudgie

Saturday morning and a visit to the Tonbridge show – by train.  I was going to do this in 2019, but there were engineering works and a replacement bus service, so I just didn’t bother.  Then came covid….  The trip … Continue reading →

Posted on February 16, 2023 by snitchthebudgie

I wasn’t at Wednesday’s meeting, as Maxine and I had slipped away for a couple of days to see friends in Chichester. We had a very relaxing time, and enjoyed seeing the sea at Wittering.  The weather was kind to … Continue reading →

A pleasant afternoon with seven members present.  We ran some trains, and socialised a lot. An interesting layout – a 4×0 modular set up.  Dave was concerned that there wouldn’t be room for him in the middle of the layout, … Continue reading →
