ESNG meeting – 15 May 2019
A rather quiet evening, with just the seven of us at club night. We were missing both the Cha(I)rman (missing on a milk round) and the Chairman Elect (just missing), and a few others. But we quickly set up some … Continue reading
ESNG PlayDay – 12 May 2019
Another pleasant afternoon running trains at the PlayDay. We, of course, started with a curry, and were joined by Ron celebrating his 67th birthday. And Miles, who demolished a large number of samosas after the Ruchita accidentally double up his … Continue reading
Dorking MRC Spring Exhibition 2019
Dorking MRC held their Spring Show in Redhill, so I dropped in as it was within walking distance. A small show, but some good layouts, and I saw a number of friends to talk to. Dorking had their new ‘N’ … Continue reading

ESNG meeting – 2 May 2019
Busy couple of days, and didn’t get around to blogging – I did something useful instead! Thursday’s ESNG meeting didn’t really happen. Our hall had become a polling station, so we moved into the church itself (of similar size) to … Continue reading

ESNG meeting – 17 April 2019
Maybe due to enthusiasm following the NGSE show, or perhaps the spring-like weather, about 14 turned up for Wednesday’s meeting. Plenty of people and plenty of trains…. It was ‘Birdcage’ night, as both Neil and I tested our new … Continue reading

London Festival of Railway Modelling – 2019 – #2
And on with the layouts! Ballyconnell Road is unusual – 3mm/ft scale is unusual in itself, but this layout is 15.75mm gauge, representing the Irish 5′ 3″ lines. I also really like the circular layout plan. And another road – … Continue reading

London Festival of Railway Modelling – 2019 – #1
Last Saturday it was my annual pilgrimage to the London Festival of Railway Modelling at Alexandra Palace. As usual, I went with my ex-work colleague Malcolm (unfortunately Peter can’t make it up the hill from the station these days.) It’s … Continue reading
