Excellent 3mm Society meeting on Monday, Pat, Mike, Bill and James were members present, together with myself, and Chris - a friend of James. Colin turned up after lunch, and an enjoyable day was had. Teifi Gorge was already set up, and as it was essentially a 3mm meeting, we put up Cardigan, and half of Boncath, to exercise visiting stock.
Colin produced some of his 'work-in-progress' 009 locos, which we ran on the TGR. One of which is  pictured below:

Besides the unfinished ones, he also brought this little beauty:

This was it's first appearance actually running on the Teifi Gorge, but I did post a couple of pictures in an earlier post just after Colin had finished the coach lining.

Last night was a Tuesday meet at Chas, where a very mature Gorgonzola, together with an extremely runny French Brie were coaxed out of the garage where they had been hiding from Charles' wife, having been banished from the kitchen refrigerator.
Colin produced a couple of refurbished locos which the Teifi Gorge Railway Company had purchased from the continent to suplement the existing stable.
Here is Rosi, languishing outside St Domaels shed, yet to be painted in TGR livery:

And a jolly little Austrian steamer together with a work coach, which will be the TGR's dedicated maintenance train. Again waiting to go into the shed for  a repaint. Seen here outside St Dogmaels station:
