A member in our MRC invited to a running-session in his garden today. When I arrived I suddenly understood that it would probably be crowded and heavy traffic on his rails:
And here some of the other members are 'fiddling' and creating their rakes for today:
There is a great span in prototypes, eras and scales and the only thing in common is the rail-gauge with 45mm. Here follows some impressions of today's running-session:
This usually runs weekly on our club-house and made it's first outing today:
I was running my Heeresfeldbahn, surprise surprise...
And running it into another era and train. Luckily it went just fine.
Another member has a couple of the original LGB tankers, so I just had to pull my repainted one up for a comparsion:
We were running until late and it was dark. Then there is no use running my grey military train, as it looks like just grey works good for camouflage.
It was getting dark and cold outside, so our friend invited us in for pizza and beer.
The members in our MRC already has an impressive collection of large scale trains. Of 30 members, 7 has their own garden railway and about 20 members has own large scale trains to bring along to running sessions. I think I see something new every time we're out running them in someone's garden.
A splendid day out indeed!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed seeing all the trains, thanks for sharing.
