Bang on target again!
Pat and Colin have just left after another successful afternoon of constructive modelling.

First of all though, the Card-Bach. Our next meeting was going to be on Tuesday October 1st - unfortunately Emyr will be giving a talk and film show in Crymych that evening.
As the theme for our evening was going to be films and slides, we are now going to meet on the following evening, Wednesday the 2nd of October. Sorry to mess you all about...

Back to the Chuffers.
Colin has done a bit more work to the Gallopers:



Remove the roof, and we find that the Dragon cars now have customers!





The calliope churning away in the background - she was originally a Greek muse renowned for her harmonious voice - how that can be compared to a barrel organ God alone knows.
Anyway, lots of tiny people enjoying the ride!

 

A bit more has been added to the steam engine which will be providing the power to drive and illuminate the Galloper:






Soon to be painted and the wheels fitted. Watch this space!


The main purpose of the afternoon was to get the track laying finished on the new layout - and the good news is - its done!
Here is an overall view of the track plan:




A couple of buildings already made:




And just to show that it all works, we have a quick vid of the train trundling around:





After patting ourselves on our respective backs, we retired to the lounge for sausage rolls, Pats scones and homemade bramble jelly with clotted cream, coffee and the latest Ffestiniog Youtube.
Evening session next week, to relax!

Selamat malam,
Shaun.
