Our AGM passed off rather quickly, on friday 31st January. Following the election of officers , all returned enblock , and with satisfactory finances to cover our meetings and running costs, attention turned to the test track , this has served us well over the years, and serious consideration is to be given to either a refurbishment or a new build. Derek our chairman will produce costs and plans for the next meeting.
Running on the top three rail track , were items from B/Lowke, Hornby, and a handbuilt Ivatt 2-6-2. The two rail lower tracks saw a new western, H class with maunsell push pull, also a R class with gate set push pull , plus another 10000 from the late Dave Barker.
A very nice hand built footbridge was sold to a member to boost club funds. 23 people turned out on the most foul of evenings.
Our next meeting is the last friday in Feb, 2014 1830
