A summer evening steamup at the SLR (north)
Posted: Sat Jul 25, 2009 10:38 am
SLRmidge put on an evening steamup last night, though despite the word summer in the topic title, things were decidedly damp. However I think everyone had a good time (apart from SLRmidge, who I think will need to sit in a darkened room for the next 2 weeks)
Some pics
It appears PTLRcecil was so inspired by his visit to Welsh Railways last week that he is copying Welsh Highland railway practise, by using a diesel to assist his steam loco. Sir Robin double heads with Stan Laurel. One of SLRmidge's causes of stress was that he wanted to do service running whilst PTLRcecil and others *cough* did not want to do service running.
The killer bunny was active again, indeed there were a number of derailments that had no known cause. It was using this baguley as its personal transport
My Caradoc and Sir Robin doublehead a long train. Another cause of stress to SLRmidge was Sir Robin causing a lineside fire at Eaves Wood and burning a circle in his pristine line overgrowth
Finally last night a 5 headed baguley train was run, this has been threatening to happen for a long time but this was the first time we had 5 baguleys at a steamup. Now we just need to get Bungle turning up with his and we can have a 6 baguley headed train.
The 5 baguleys in the woods, Stan Laurels headlight came in useful in the darkening conditions
Thanks to SLRmidge for holding the steamup, and I hope he is recovering ok from the stress
