And now the pics, Me Annieshalt and Ferrysteam (both members here by the way) brought engines.

I brough a Bachmann shay, regner Vincent, Lollypop railcar and a LGB handcar

pics
The railways own mamod


doesnt work to well right now though  


Now for my biggest toy  




dont get to play with this 1 to often








Me Vincent




Ferrysteam gased his up so we could double head and we built up a large train.










taking pictures is a big part of this hobby  




just look at them plumes  








after an hour os so of that we ran them into the siding still coupled together with their last whisps of steam


and while ferrysteam got 1 of thsi accucraft locos ready I did some shunting with a Digital controller


wow just look at the vast amount of concentration required to shunt  


more steam








started to get dark











and the railcar

yes a steamupwith good friends is a ton fo fun!

lots of stupid stuff that would be frowned upon if you where at a show or with people who didnt know you as well.

stupid stuff like; I bet my Vincent could beat your Vincent at a tug of war!  lets try it then!  

and ; lets put his mamod at the end of the train and see if he notices.
