Jacks Elsecar Pics

Post by 90733 » Sun Sep 26, 2010 6:50 pm

Had a great day :D Met Greg (Narrow minded) and Kes. Also saw Matt (Sir Haydn) and Dan (DLRdan) so i can now put names to faces ;)
Spent most of my day playing on Dixon Green :D :
Image
'Feanor' pulls a single passenger coach around Dixon Green.
Image
Then pulls into the terminus, notice the compton box van behind :D
Image
Also drove this AnDel RC O&K, which are brilliant :D
Image
This caught my eye too, a IP observation coach converted to a railcar, unfortunatley it failed :( :roll:

Then I met Kes and was allowed to play with various Compton Down locos on Dixon Green, which was brill, so thanks Kes :D :
Image
A line up of all the Compton Down locos that ended up on Dixon Green :D
Image
Another line up with two of my locos in front :D
Image
Two Compton Down locos stand around the turntable on Dixon Green, the one on the left is the loco from the pond :D
Image
The loco from the pond on shed.

Also thanks to Kes I got a play on Rowlands Lodge (thanks again Kes :D )
Image
A skip based loco, it's brilliant, but slow :D
Image
A ruston (i think) waiting in the yard.
Image
Then it took a train :D

Purchases I finally got a coach, a binnie skip, some couplings, some buffers and air brake pipes, and my dad bought a IP rapier :D
Thanks
Jack

Nice pics Jack, I saw the submerged loco on Rowlands lodge, along with some of the locos you pictured although I didn't realise they were from Compton Down. Should really have taken the Wheldon wagon I suppose.... :roll:
