Hornby day at the Meccano exhibition (2)
|
Meccano exhibition (1) (2) |
|
Being a one-day show, we built a smaller layout than usual. As in the past we restricted the locos and rolling stock to a joint LNER-LMS operation. Here the E220 Special locomotive 'Bramham Moor' can be seen, just leaving the station. |
|
|
|
The LMS motive power depot with almost every type of locomotive made in the O-gauge range. |
|
Some of the Goods trains on display. As usual there was an exception on the LNER-LMS theme: for display purposes we used a post-war Goods trains, made up from No. 50 stock and an electrified No. 40 Tank locomotive. |

|
To complete the layout, Henk Brouwer brought some of his Dinky Toys. Here you can see No. 954 Fire Station, complete with fire engines. |
|
No. 785 Service Station, Pullmore car transporter and a selection of cars made a nice display at the Goods Depot. |

This scan was made from a picture from the local newspaper. They published an article on the Hornby show the next day. A first time for the Dutch HRCA! |
|
Dutch HRCA member Duco Postmaa brought, with some nice clockwork locos, this French Hornby OBB loco. Just when the camera was set, it derailed in spectacular fashion...... |
