Parnhams got a good crowd all weekend. A lot of people also took away with them fliers for the Bingham show at Cotgrave on 30th April and 1st May. Cotgrave will be without Farndon Road unfortunately- more technical problems mean Parnhams will have to substitute. Never mind, there's always next year. In the mean time I'm going to upgrade as many of my FR locos as I can afford to do. The WD has gone- though the Royal Mail took sixteen days to deliver a first-class packet AND delivered it at 6pm on a Friday evening!!!! One A1 (the one needing a repair has gone, with the Grafar-chassised one to follow (Abbotsford). Two A3s so far with a third up for auction, and one A4 with one waiting. I've also sold a spare 04 diesel (three are too many) and from the Parnhams fleet a director, a J39 and the N7 are going shortly, together with Trafalgar when fixed. Replacements will be fewer in number and better in quality.
Cock O'The North on Farndon Road
Monday, 28 March 2011
End of March already...
More work and not enough railway modelling, same old story. Nottingham exhibition has been and gone. Successful weekend except that we had a high casualty rate. Alberta has done another stand-in stint, not bad for a 30-year old Peco loco. Parnhams got a good crowd all weekend. A lot of people also took away with them fliers for the Bingham show at Cotgrave on 30th April and 1st May.
