Hi,

As well as being a member of the Cardiff Model Engineering Society I also belong to a 16 mm Scale Narrow Gauge Modeller group in foreign parts, well across the Severn Estuary in England.  This group have a portable model railway that about once a month through the Winter months they set up in a church hall to play on.  As a bit of relief from building a model railway today we went over the water to Somerset.  We did stop off at B&Q on the way home for supplies to continue work on the layout tomorrow.  As all of my runable 16 mm steam engines are stored in the trailer which is up on blocks in the garage so not very accessible I took one of my R/C electric ones to play with.  A bit of a video taken earlier today. I hope you enjoy.
