This morning our small Wednesday Group gathered to run a sequence session based on the Tuesday/Thursday Timetable, but without the clock. Operators Steve Weedon, Geoff Tynan and Michael Robinson gathered to run a selection of trains across the layout. Below are some pics of the session. It was the first session for the new bridge across the door and the new Turnable in Blue Lake. Both worked flawlessly. Unlike the only double slip left on the layout which for some reason decided to short out every train that ran across it.
VR J class 519 sits on the Turntable about to hook up to its train later in the day.
