Back on Zoom tonight for yet another club meeting. Good to see everyone again. No Peter tonight, as he was down at the caravan…. Down in West Sussex at the moment, oh, a Class 700 followed by a track cleaning … Continue reading

ESNG meeting – 3 September 2020
Another good Zoom tonight. Just the five of us, with apologies from a few members (especially the Chairman, who had been cornered for an early milkround.) Good to see Martin this time around, too. And Phil managed to master both … Continue reading

A little progress with the wagons. I’ve 10 Peco Lowfits well on the way to completion. The bodies have had their bolster bases scraped off with a knife blade and fine sandpaper. They’ve been primed and a first coat of … Continue reading
