FLR Open Day

Post by MTA » Wed Aug 26, 2009 7:45 pm

Malcolm opened up his railway once again for fellow 16MM West Sussex Area Group member's. The forecast was bad, but it was bright on occasions and just as we were packing up the promised rain just began to fall.

My Roundhouse loco was present once again, this time fitted with a Summerlands Chuffer chuff pipe which made a world of difference.

Chris brought along a kit built Katie with a couple of extras, and a second hand Cheddar Samson.

Norman brought along a second hand Accucraft Caradoc, but the tyres on the front wheelset fell off after moving literally an inch! Oh well... We let him loose on the other locos so he didn't feel left out.

Malcolm had his Roundhouse VoR and Pearse Countess in action, and as Chris was using my rake of wagons I was able to use the heavier W&L freight set. Plus the IoM coaches at the end which made the chuff from 'Peaslake' that much louder :twisted:

Chris painted it (as it stands in its third attempt) using Halfords' sprays, and was lined by Lightline.
