Llanfair Show - Saturday 5th September

I am glad to report that the show was up to its usual high standard again.
A big bonus was a rendezvous with Clive T and his family combined with a visit to my place and a running session.

A few pics from the show.......... A couple of Regner beauties on Martins Models stand

An exhibition layout with a mixture of LGB and Roundhouse stock

German Narrow Gauge lok on HerrRegner's demonstration layout next to Martin's Models Stand

Went off the rails

Another Regner lok - Wangerooge 0-6-0 with a £2495 price tag !

Lots of live steam to see.........

And a diesel or two.........

The tram loco in the background was scratch built I think..........

Accucraft Countess (The real loco was just down the hill hauling trains on the WLR)
Apologies for the poor photo through the glass.

I had to liberate this little chap.

Twas a fine show (as always) Duncan/Billy is a great loco Paul ans runs very well, a few shots of the locos at the bottom of the hill.

Now thats what I call a pub

This mixed train can be made up in G scale now!!

Shame this is on a plinth!!

Nice

Now I would buy a model of this!!

And this

Dougal

With ZB stock

Its a great show and a cracking line

The Welshpool and Llanfair Railway is a cracking NG line.
(It has stock from the Zillertalbahn, Resita 0-8-0t has served in Hungary and on the ZB, and there are several Hungarian bogie coaches).

They run a steam Gala on the same days as the Garden Railway Show.

Highly recommended !

Great pics Alec.

Cracking show - cracking pics! - thanks guys

First time in three years I've had the remotest yen to make a return visit to the UK !

Keep the pics coming - then perhaps next September?

Yes...Brian. I think I need to make a visit too. Did once many years ago when the show was just starting out.

Glad I couldn't go this year really as I would have definitely 'impulse purchased'.

Great pics and I hope there are some more to come. I know Clive never goes anywhere without his camera.

BTW Ralph Reppingen makes a live steam Resita
Maybe someone's next purchase....

This is the last picture I have - LGB Feldbahn loco.

Clive may have some more photos when he gets back in a day or so......

Got a few more from the Gala, I'll post them later , hope posting lots of photo's of NG real/models is OK on here as I know it hacked a fair few people off on another G scale froum that I used to belong to.

Correct me if I'm wrong but this is 'number 14' the ex Sierra Leone Hunslet 2-6-2T.

If so Pearse make a model of this but in a red colour. I prefer the the black.

You keep posting Alec. We love pictures.
