Back to the trains!

Steve's already shown it, but here is another view of that lovely B4 tank built by by the late Harry Dumas.

Here is Derek's BR brake van, built by Dave Walker from an etch that isn't generally available, although I think Steve Cook has managed to get hold of one.

And finally Cliff Barker takes great delight in pointing out that the finescale 1/32 trucks are sitting on non-finescale code 200 track:eek:

That's all folks!

Steve, thank you very much for posting those pictures, a good record of what was on display.
No worries :)
Graham Smith a G1MRA member I was chatting to has very kindly posted a short video of our efforts on Youtube, thankfully he mostly managed to leave me out:))

Link not working...boo...
Thanks for your company, I hope you got back in good time, I managed it despite running into Bath on vapour and being pulled over by the boys in blue approaching Cirencester for going too fast (no I couldn't believe it either, but I didn't argue!).
Pleasure, and likewise :D Easy run back for me thanks, not as exciting as your by the sounds of it...speeding, in your tank, was that downhill with a tailwind then :p:D I almost want to say good effort, but better hadn't....
I've done a bit more to the C10 today, next job is the tiebar.....
Excellent - I've finished filling and soldering on the second EM point, painted the first and given up arguing with the cosmetic tiebars on the third. Currently finishing the mechanical stripping of Doddle, a bath in Nitromors beckons next....motivating this live steam stuff :)...or is it prolonged meths inhalation :eek:

Nice to catch up with you again Simon, and what a cracking display highlighting what is possible in 1/32nd scale.

I find pictures of Steve's weathering quite inspirational and it was a pleasure to meet him and talk weathering for a while - lots to remember and put into practice. So, tonight I have made the first tentative steps in weathering the Loriot / Lowmac WE. I hope what I've done so far will look OK in the cold light of day.

Stoneleigh was definitely a good day out.

Is it me of is Simon looking like Clarkson with glasses? :))
Oh gawd, don't you start.....

He's much taller than me and drives fast cars:))

By your own admission, we beg to differ.....
