Club Outing to Mold MESApril 29th, 2007 was a wonderful sunny day. A club outing to the Mold Model Engineering Society track at Northop (Llaneurgain) was an outstanding success. MMES were very hospitable and provided all facilities for a splendid running day. A good turnout of our members and their engines and lots of enjoyable running took place. Here are just a few shots that I took of a couple of engines - I spent most of the day trying to get the Sweet Pea to run, but she was having a bad day.... | |
Henry Wood, driving Daresbury with Duncan Webster and son Ian approaching the traverser in the woods. |
The same crossing the traverser for the outer loop. |
Likewise climbing the rise to the summit. |
Henry riding Daresbury solo on the Viaduct. The supports go 14 feet into the rather soft ground! |
Henry driving through the woods along the back of the outer loop. |
Henry disappearing into the distance amid the swathes of wild garlic. |
Dave Mulholland, driving Torquay Manor, with Roy Allen and Mike Charlton, approaching the tunnel. |
Stopped at the lights. Dave, Roy and Mike waiting for a green at the footbridge, approaching the station. |

A couple of additional photos contributed by Roy Allen: | |
Barrie Purslow with his Duchess |
Barry Harrison waiting on Daresbury for a green light. Photo taken from the footbridge near the station. Barry wishes to point out that this is not his most flattering aspect as it reveals the deficiencies of his hairstyle. |
| And some photos sent in by Barry himself: | |
Barry Purslow biting his tongue as he mutters to Bill Underwood: "And you mean that these shiny brass bits actually do something?" |
Emma Victoria, Henry Wood's beautiful little saddle tank loco. |
