Another pleasant afternoon playing trains, with a bakers dozen or so of members and friends attending. Paul brought along part of his Kato Racetrack, with transition boards to change from Kato Unitrack to N-mod standards.  20′ of layout just about … Continue reading →

It’s been a month of modifications.  It started when I tried to show off the railway to son Michael, and found that when I changed the points, there was a dead short.  So the first task has been to rewire … Continue reading →

Posted on May 4, 2018 by snitchthebudgie

We moved club night forward a day, as the hall was being used as a polling station on the Thursday.  And although a number of members can’t make Wednesdays, we still had a very respectable turn out of 10 people. … Continue reading →

Posted on April 22, 2018 by snitchthebudgie

We’ll start today with a few shots of people.  It was good to see Kerry and Invicta there, and they seem to be selling a few things. John and NScaleCH didn’t do as well…. BH Enterprises must have had a … Continue reading →

On the Wednesday night after the show, we thought that there might be a low turn out of members.  Correct, just the six of us.  However, we had thought ahead and asked Paul to bring some Kato track along.  We … Continue reading →

ESNG exhibition 2018 #2

Posted on April 18, 2018 by snitchthebudgie

We were fortunate to get into the school early, at 4pm, as Derek’s influence remained, despite retiring as caretaker, and he was entrusted with the keys.  The rooms that we were using quickly took shape thanks to the good number … Continue reading →

Posted on April 16, 2018 by snitchthebudgie

Well, that’s another exhibition done and dusted.  I’ll report more fully through the week, but here are my initial thoughts. Numbers were a little down on last year.  This was probably due to it being the last weekend of the … Continue reading →

Getting very close!

Posted on April 12, 2018 by snitchthebudgie

It’s getting very close now. All seem to be organised (barring an outbreak of plague in Redhill, or WWIII due to world leaders with dodgy haircuts). The home made cakes are getting made, and I’m off to buy the (real) … Continue reading →

On my workbench #8

Posted on April 10, 2018 by snitchthebudgie

Not much to report on the workbench….  Too much thinking and not enough modelling over the past month.  And too much exhibition organisation.  But I have thought again about my N-club modules.  I decided that I really did want to … Continue reading →

ESNG meeting – 05 April 2018

Posted on April 7, 2018 by snitchthebudgie

The Treasurer was beside himself – 16 whole people to take money off!!  I’m not sure where they all came from, but it was good to see a club night buzzing, and the tracks full of trains. Peter has been … Continue reading →
