Seems I won't be able to make it either as I have to work all next weekend :(

What I would like is a write up (and photo) on Love Lane for the Area Groups page of the Newsletter... Please. Pretty please! The October meeting would be a bit late.

Last Sunday saw the 100th meeting of the East Anglian Area S7 Group at Sudbury, for the event our host Peter Hunt organised a locally based traction engine to pay a visit.

Also visiting was John Birch's Aussie S7 coach and a steam roller wheeled :eek: spam can owned by Colin Prewer.

DSCN3168.JPG Well, it's only taken 10 months but all the rail is now back in place. Still needs a cosmetic chair or two, as well as switch anchors, stretcher bars etc. Oh, and some fishplates that I noticed were missing just as I bent down to pick up the toolbox on my way out last Sunday. All of the electrical droppers should be in place so if somebody could spare a Wednesday to connect them up to the DCC knitting underneath then we can start playing trains proper testing at the next Sunday meeting shortly followed by Sopwith tidying up the paint and ballast.

Hi Chaps,
I am sure you will all be happy to know that the Sunday bus service on the WMR has been lifted. The pannier ran through the new trackwork OK, just a couple of tie bars and switch anchors to do.
Regards Peter.
Good stuff Pete, just so long as we don't have to celebrate with the "sausage rolls":eek::))

Surely that should be "Several months of Sundays"?
