RallyRob16 Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Just waiting for my car to be MoT'd, before loading up and setting off. Fingers crossed it'll pass, it's only done about 1,200 miles since the last one!!! All my stock is packed up following a marathon wheel cleaning session yesterday. Isn't it amazing how dirty the wheels get so soon after the last clean!!!!!???? And before anyone says anything they were cleaned for their last outing at Blackburn a couple of weeks ago and the track was too!!!!! Looking forward to meeting other RMWebbers and putting faces to Usernames!! See you about 5ish for set up! Rob Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Steve Hewitt Posted October 31, 2009 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 31, 2009 Just had a great day as a guest operator on Blackmill. I must learn a lot more about the names of these "modern" trains and locos. I spend most of my time in the 1930's to 1950's as far as modelling is concerned, so I often had to read the running numbers of the models to be able to programme the controller. The crib sheet provided seemed like gobbledegook. One diesel is much like any other to me! However, I've definitely decided to incorporate DCC with sound in my "0" gauge Black Five when I get round to building the kit. I've only had it about six years, (five for the wheels and motor/gearbox). Steve. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cairnsroadworks Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I too had fun operating Dudley Road and Peters Street yesterday, cheers to Pete for the invite and apologies to Jon for filling up Dudley Road repeatedly and leaving it for you to clear! Hope you had fun today and can't wait to see some snaps. Cheers, Andi. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was "unfortunately" away on a family holiday and couldn't be there to crack the whip behind Blackmill - I guess I've got them trained well enough now Home now to check the damage Cheers, Mick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidM Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Having had chance to recover from this weekend, I thought i'd pop something up! Thanks to all who attended over the weekend, both those on and off RMWeb. I spent most of Saturday and Sunday talking to Layout Operators, other Exhibitors, Traders and the general public and all had good things to say about the show. A few offered constuctive suggestions about next year that have all been taken on board and will make LYDCC '10 (30/31st October, get the dates in your diaries now!) a better show......building on the fantastic base that has been the last three years. Special thanks to the Blackmill gents who, as above, came to the aid of a club layout early Sunday Morning (and also had lots and lots of things that kept popping up on Blackmill to distract me....that Structure Gauging Train was incredible!) and the Brockley Green S.E.4 team for the cross-pennine banter and handshake on the Sunday evening....it's stuff like that that makes it all worthwhile. Cheers to all who attended - and we look forward to welcoming you back next year.....details soon..... Dave M Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judge Dread Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 and the Brockley Green S.E.4 team for the cross-pennine banter and handshake on the Sunday evening....it's stuff like that that makes it all worthwhile. On that point, can I have my watch back. Seriously we enjoyed ourselves, as we always try to do, and thank the lads from "The Dark Side" for a wonderful weekend. Now for our own show!!!!!
