RMweb Gold Mr.S.corn78 Posted April 6, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 6, 2015 A week to go but one of Thorne Yards sound locos has gone into the works (tech support Simon) for an overhaul!!! Class 37 if you can't tell from photoWell funny story.......it should be working for the show The layouts seem to be turning into demonstrations. Should I be worried? Geoff Endacott Geoff, they like to keep tech support on my toes (extra body screws for one) also it won't be the first show I have been re-wiring a layout whilst the show is open. Looking forward to the show Cheers Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Endacott Posted April 9, 2015 Author Share Posted April 9, 2015 We are now one layout down. Polpendra has dropped out because a member of the owner's family has been admitted to hospital. These things can't be helped. I always maintain that families come before trains. My best wishes for a speedy recovery. Geoff Endacott Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
