The Last Sunday in March at Butterley

Post by Narrow Minded » Sun Mar 28, 2010 8:28 pm

Despite the lack of sleep and an unpromising weather forecast, I managed a trip to Butterley Garden Railway Association today - and picked up Myfanway's "new" smokebox.......stunning! thanks again Matt :D )

"Sir Haydn" always seems to bring along a themed treat to the Sunday steamups, along with other assorted drool inspiring models!!!
This is what greated me in the steam-up bay :D

and here's a couple more picks from the day.......

Sorry Matt, I couldn't resist it :D - I took the "long shot" to get the full rake in (Honest!!)

Here's where I meant to crop it but I reckon you gave the photo a certain "air".

There's no such thing as bad weather - only inappropriate dress :D
