Along with my as it turns out reliable Railcar there were a pair of scratchbuilt diesels, an Accucraft 'Ragleth', a Roundshouse 'Sandy River', a Forney, a coal fired Russell and a Silver Lady. There was also an Archangel Sgt.Murphy that has been fitted with working outside cylinders.
Some livestock has obviously escaped from a train, fortunately it's not a killer bunny!

This beautiful Peter Angus Avonside sadly wasn't run during the day.

The Fowler rattles past with a loaded skip

Nice photo's William, shame I couldn't make it today!

Some interesting stuff there.

I somehow missed this thread! Is this the York Model engineers new 16mm layout by any chance?

Yep

It's quite a line, there are essentially two lines, the longer run is more suited to the steamers and fast traffic while the smaller one is where the slow or unreliable stuff is consigned to (guess where my locos tend to run!) That said there are passing loops on the longer run so the slow electrics don't get in the way of the steamers too much.

Ah thats good as im going to be joining there soon for the 16mm layout! so hopefully Ill be able to come over for the next running session if Im not too busy!

That's mainly why I joined!
