Steele, at the controls of her Minitrix layout.

The event was open to the
public, which gave some youngsters an opportunity to see Trix in action.

|
Keith Hayman
had decided this would be the last event at which he managed a
sales
table,
so all locos and rolling stock were offered at a 40% discount.
|
Clive Parker busy with his
layout, which featured many customised locos.
|
Here's Clive's latest creation:
a DC Scotsman. The chassis is from a German Trix
BR01,
and the body and tender are TTR Scotsman diecast.

Another view of the DC
Scotsman, the project is not quite completed.
|
Clive has
modified the crossover on his layout to have a metal centre contact,
connected
to the centre rail. This helps ensure that locos don't stall while crossing.
