Erm, excuse me boys..... I'll think you'll find
I sealed
you a deal!
in the interests of fairness to the other bidders in the auction who may be reading this thread I'd like to explain here that your items were withdrawn early as you are active volunteers doing noble works at Llechfan on the new Compton Down site who have faithfully promised to run locos on CDR and continue to see active service as new railway is built.
I now own your mortal souls - may the lord have mercy on you all...
mwhahahahahaahah
Thanks for great jobs so far - photos to follow to you of engines on display at Stoneleigh - sorry you couldn't be there.

Nice to see you've joined us here Kes! I think this forum could do with a little more female input.

Some Stoneleigh pics - a couple a' Edward Sholto - then 'Dacre' as built by Dad then a few of CDR display including some Hunslets and a mining loco - apologies that closer close ups got a wobble on as slightly dark in hall for short exposures..

Enjoyed looking through all the pics. Just shows how big or small some of the items are (compared to a person).
