ARANA HILLS - JULY 19TH AND 20TH JUNE
       
Ipswich Heritage Model Railway Club Once again a late start for Friday; Mum had to work an extended shift (she also had to work Saturday). We got to the hall and found Richard was set up and ready to run. We got the modules on their legs and had the computer there so we could play the train simulator games and to watch dvd’s. People at this show seem to enjoy watching the dvd’s, especially the old Buster Keaton ones. We got things up and running, the curtains up and the Digital sorted out so Mum didn’t have to worry.

Saturday- All went well. We found out why the circuit breakers kept on tripping – we needed a more powerful power supply to the layout. I got to run my trains on the layout, I also had another go at the Digital controller – I want my own.

While I was running on another layout, Dad and the guys used the computer to control the trains on ours. All went well and they want to do it more often. Ipswich Heritage Model Railway Club
Ipswich Heritage Model Railway Club As usual lunch was great and the organisers of the show were friendly. My favourite layout at the show was the Lego one, I was able to bring my Lego train from home and run it on their layout.
Sunday ­ Turned up but we didn´t have Wayne, so the guys couldn´t use the computer to run the layout. The layout ran well. We still had some troubles but nothing to cause major problems. When the show was over, dropping the layout went without a hitch. As you can see by the photo, I only had to be rough with Richard ­ Get back in there and work.
