Blimey!! I was so busy trying to run trains I did not spot you! Judging by the number of bottles of meths left in the bucket it looks like the pictures were taken Thursday and Saturday - They are 750cc bottles and I was using about one a day!
I seem to remember having a bit of difficulty with derailments when I was running the Fairlie with those coaches. I think the railway is due an overhaul, as well as the list of repairs required for Titan and the Fairlie!

Looks great to me, sometimes some shims make a world of difference.

"looks like the pictures were taken Thursday and Saturday"
Spot on, Friday I spent in a state of collapse but by Saturday I sallied forth again.
There were other STIA stalwarts present
Trust the Johnson's to have something bigger.

PS There was a very smart Scot around but she couldn't get nearer than Swanage Pier.
