I was tempted, but then I had to add the $950 airfare to have a look at it and kick the tires, and then there is the shipping cost back to the US (plus whatever import tariff gets slapped on - made in the EU? Coming from the UK? And it's wood? Hmm.).
Nice looking board with all the hard work done and a real bargain at £60.00. And it would fit in the back of the 'Onda with the seats up.

Lovely well built baseboard very pleased with it.
Really nice to see Bisto still going strong he is a lovely little dog who was the mascot at the YMR show all those years ago.
Now i have the problem of exactly what i am going to build on the baseboard it will be N gauge i have for years thought about building Perranporth station but to date have not done it i need to do a bit of research to check dimentionally i can fit it in which i think i can.

So good to see a happy ending, not forgetting a new beginning, as a germ of a western layout sees a light at the end of a tunnel :)
Onwards both.
Best,

So glad it didn't end up at the tip, seeing Brian again brought back some great memories.
Better get on and drill some more holes in the walls for more brackets….
[Thanks Bill]

That said there is no reason why a village hall somewhere could not be hired for a weekend and it could be a members and friends weekend where members could bring some layouts and you could have workshop and instruction sessions as we have many experts in different fields of the hobby within this group.
