Took some stock to the club last night............

Queue to get on the layout this week so I stood aside, but as it was the eve before VE Day I got Rob to run my wagons around behind his WD (they're the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th from the front)

Do the other tracks work too? 

[Newportnobby]

Yes, but Rob likes to use the other oval and he runs everything at breakneck speed so I try to avoid any of his stuff in my vids. Also, the fiddle yard control panels are about 6-7ft apart which makes it bloovery difficult to operate both a la Ben Hur

Was that prototype Deltic yours?

[Newportnobby]

  It was Rob's

Tonight saw me running the Rapido class 44 with some blood & custard stock........

Looks more like a class 44 to me but then what do I know?

That 44 is running smooth as silk! Mind you, the Duchess ain't doing badly either.

You're going to have to show me how to do these flicker things. They always seem to work well!

Good-looking setup that, and that pair of locos look great
