We had our third get together for 2018 last Saturday with 7 members in attendance. I didn’t get around to taking photos which is a shame as David G had brought along quite a lot of his stud of locos for a running session, many of which he has had weathered professionally. A quite impressive collection.
We welcomed back Anthony from his three year posting to Sydney with the Army – he swapped in for Ben who the Army saw fit to post to Puckapunyal at the end of last year. Anthony showed us some of the building progress he has made for his North Wales line. Hopefully we will get organised enough for a visit once he is fully back operational.
David H had brought his DCC programing set up and sorted my NCE controller which was playing up – turned out it was the cable rather than the controller. A bit of playing around with DCC locos resulted.
Discussions on Hollie’s and my new layout were fruitful – I’d put some Kato track one to see if the geometry was workable and it seems it will be ok. I’m hopeful that we shall have significant progress by next month – fortunately I’ve two weeks holidays coming up straight after Easter so the signs are good, management permitting.
As always, if you are around South East Queensland on the Second Saturday you are more than welcome to come along and join us. Just drop me a line.
