If any TT members are over come down and say Hello!

i am never at our place about a mile down the road when its on typical

just bumping up!

I take it there all getting low loaders back ? I did enjoy reading last time in VS about the journey with the engines last year i think, i bet the journey will be alot quicker this year with them all being waggons, and pretty quick ones at that. Have a good journey

As far as I know Foden 11962 will not be attending sadly.

Thats correct, i have tryed to edit the post but couldnt!

Some are going on to another show, some are lowloading back and one is steaming back, hopefully the journey will be trouble free this time!! (fingers crossed!)

That sounds like great fun, hope you have a great time.

We shall also be there with our Fowler 4" scale A9 for the third year, but will not be steaming down from Cherbourg! Great event (if the weather is good) and we are made very welcome!
Have a safe trip down and see you there. A bientot mes amis! Jill and Ian
