A non-profit organisation devoted to the
collecting and operating of TTR, Trix Express and Trix 00 gauge trains |
|
|
Penny and
Martin Drayson have contributed a significant amount of time and expertise
to provide the TTRCA Spares service. At the AGM, Martin was presented with
an unusual Trix loco, and Penny received a bouquet, as a mark of gratitude for
their commitment to the TTRCA's members.

Martin's loco only appeared in
the Trix Main Catalogue 1999/2000 as a limited edition to celebrate 100
years of the DB museum at Nürnberg and 100 years of the Märklin museum at
Göppingen. It is beautifully engineered (heavy with a die cast metal
body).

Jeff Carpenter brought along a
layout featuring early prewar Trix Twin and Trix Express.

Jeff's layout
included early wooden buildings: goods depot, engine and carriage sheds,
water tower, signal box and Twin City station.
|
TTR locos
were, appropriately, in Southern Livery to match the early Trix Express
imported items.
