Me and a couple of pals will be running out teeny LGB-based layout at the Barnwell Garden Show this weekend. It’s only 12x8 feet, but has lots of track of a necessarily tight radiii - smallest and next one up, so that we can run ALL of the Bachmann geared stuff on the outside loop.
Between us we have five Shays, a Heisler and Climax, a live-steam Shay and a couple of small live-steam locos. I’ll also be running a few LGB littlies, and a couple of AccuCraft’s snazzy little Baguley-Drury dismals with suitable rolling stock.
There will be tea and cake for the locals, and coffee and pie for me and Bruce. You are all more than welcome to to drop by - outside the village hall behind the Montague Arms pub, which will, or course, be open during the show.
All donations will be going to help offset the enormous cost of adding on a small washroom to a building put up in the early 1600’s - for the same price we could have a good-sized three-bedroomed home on Vancouver Island…
There will be a couple of little movies on Youtube, I have no doubt, that’s if we can get persimmon from the parents to upload them if they have their children in them.
