East Anglian Model Railway Exhibition 2018 #1
Last Saturday, on the road again with Mr Atfield. We started off at Brentwood toy fair, that was a disappointment – last visit had lots of ‘N’ gauge, this time next to nothing. We then continued north to Huntingdon for … Continue reading
ESNG meeting – PlayDay 11 March 2018
Another successful PlayDay, despite missing one or two regulars due to Mother’s Day. Apologies to those who couldn’t make it, but it there wasn’t another Sunday this month when the hall was free. Still, 10 members wasn’t a bad turnout. … Continue reading

ESNG turns 21 – the evidence?
East Surrey N Gauge is 21 this year, and we thought this auspicious date should be marked in some way. So this week Derek delivered a large cardboard box to me…. The contents were a 100 off for a Dapol … Continue reading

On my workbench #5
More gentle progress – the first two buildings for the modules. One a Walther’s plastic kit, the other a wood craftsman kit of an ice house. The photograph is, of course, cruel! A little touching up of the ice house … Continue reading
