| The Henbury Railway
Sunday 28 October 2007 Foto album created by Eddie Bellass This short album is a photographic record of a Sunday afternoon steam up held on The Henbury Railway which has been created deep in leafy Cheshire by Roger Fletcher, a member of the Association of 16mm Narrow Gauge Modellers. Two other 16mm Association members - Chris MacKenzie and Eddie Bellass - attended with their own locomotives and trains. Chris, alas, discovered that the supposedly fully charged batteries in his two locomotives had not in fact charged overnight and neither was able to haul any of his trains. His passenger coaches and rake of tipper wagons still got a run, however, being hauled by the other locomotives operating on the day. Eddie's brand new Roundhouse Millie and its train of Accucraft Welsh narrow gauge wagons were all operated in their *as bought, out-of-the box condition* but they are due to be decorated and weathered after they are fully run in. Pictures of Millie rather dominate this album because when I wasn't operating her I was servicing her before her next run. I didn't use my camera much during the servicing as the engine was almost new and I was keeping an eye on her. We were lucky with the weather, for on a day that saw heavy rain fall in the early morning and late evening, the afternoon was fine and sunny. We all had our digital cameras with us so we have pooled our shots to share the occasion with you via this Fotopic on-line slide show. Enjoy! Eddie Bellass First created in October 2007 |
