The next Garden Running Day

I borrowed the headline from a phrase by Mark the Man of Tin in the comment-section in my previous blogpost. I didn't have to wait long before an opportunity to take my recently made Kübelwagen and Pak 36 out for their first ride on the rails arose. Shortly after I published the blogpost my friend and fellow mrc member Heine invited to another running day in his garden. The weather are more unpredictable during autumn and the notices for upcoming events are short, depending on the forecast. This day was sunny and not too cold and it was perfect weather conditions for a day out.

Heine's growing collection of BP-tank wagons  are getting comprehensive and impressive:

 

I really like this short, strange but prototypical train:

Finally the Kübelwagen and Pak 36 are on their way (to somewhere) to change the tide of war perhaps:

One of our members has so many long coaches that he needs a trolley to get them to the railway:

Quite often visitors who are not into model or garden railways pop in to have a look during our running sessions. One of the visitors this day was very young and had brought his own train. Heine was quick to find another and more suitable train for this young audience. This iconic little engine just turned 80 years last month:

Time for lunch. I wonder when food for the BBQ is out of season?

Above us we observed aother reminder that's autumn is here and the winter is coming:

Here is a video from our Garden Running Day:

I don't know when we'll be able to arrange another Garden Running Day next time, as there are some 'train shows' coming up the following weeks. Besides the forecast is predicting more rain.

This weekend our model railway club will show some of our layouts, 3D-models and garden trains on the largest Model Railway Exhibition in Southeast Norway this year. If you are in Mysen this weekend, please stop by for a chat.
