Good evening everyone. Yes, yet another edition of Chuffers!

This is a special one, as today the three of us ventured bravely over the Preseli Hills and across the reaches of the Cleddau into darkest Pembroke Dock.

My old workmate and accomplished bass guitarist from the 1960's, Pete Mitchell had invited the Chufferduffers to once again exhibit our layouts at his modelling groups' annual exhibition in the Heritage Museum in Pembroke Dockyard.

We set off at the ungodly time of 7:30 in the morning, and were all set up in the venue and operational by 9:30. No more waffle - here are pictures:

 

Maes Y Gof:

 


 


The American N Gauge:





And an overall view:



We had goodies to sell, and did quite a bit of business. Both layouts ran faultlessly throughout the six hour exhibition, and we had ample time to wander, meeting fellow modeller Roger Howells, also from 'Oop North', and old acquaintances Ron Weatherall, Peter Francis and Steve McDonald.


Finishing with videos of both layouts:









Thanks for watching,


Shaun.
