OO Gauge update March 2019 . Leave a comment
Recently the group sadly lost one of its members, Tomos hollyer.
Our deepest sympathies go to his family and friends.
As regards to the 00 layout. We have recently finished the parcels depot area on the main station. We also incorporated a milk depot siding, naming it Thompsons Dairies. (see below)
Considerations are ongoing with regard to future developments.
The three are:
1) Top station rerouting of the branch line to go round the loco depot, building a new loco depot and repositioning the turntable.
Also repointing the entrance to top station platforms thus simplifying the track work and removing a troublesome crossover.
2) Replace the majority of code 70 with code 100 on the continuous run and gradient to the top station. This also includes removing the troublesome hidden sidings underneath the top station .
3) Make the branch switchable to dcc operation. Giving members who have dcc loco’s a chance to run them. This would also give the section a chance to look at the feasability of dcc for the future.

Open Day 2018 Leave a comment
A very nice day. A good selection of our members and club layouts and locomotives.
But a disappointingly low number of visitors.

Perhaps this should really have been called Diesels to Bedford as we took five against the the 2 of steam that ran.

This year we had the opportunity of a larger stand albeit at short notice. It was cobbled together but must have worked out well as we got our best ever result. A second prize in the exhibitors trophy.
