Warley 2010

A cut-down trip to Warley this year due to family commitments (had to leave at 2pm), but still enjoyable.  Highlights:

Pete Waterman’s NGG16 No. 109 was there (well one power bogie):

P1100452 P1100451

Some exquisite modelling:

 P1100458P1100456

Some cracking 7mm narrow gauge layouts – the well known Stoney Middleton, Bridport Town and Picture This…

 P1100466     P1100461 P1100463

and some standard gauge layouts were impressive, notably Copenhagen Fields and Barmouth bridge:

  P1100470P1100468

Unfortunately 009 was represented with just one layout ‘Bryngoch’ and a publicity stand - note this lovely Darj train though.

P1100465P1100464

I did spend a few £s as you'd expect.  I finally bowed to the envitable and bought the fantsatic Eade book on Ratgoed quarry, and ordered two sets of RT models forthcoming farish 08 conversion, adding a jackshaft.  This will be for my models of Harlech and Criccieth castles.  A sample on display looked superb.  http://www.rtmodels.co.uk/
