G3 Clubroom

The Forum for Gauge 3 Model Trains

Fantastic work!

So, I have mentioned building this previously. The committee of my local club was not keen on it being displayed due to the size however if I can build it, they will include it in next years show...

9 months to tell them if it will be ready, 12 months and 2 weeks to the show itself. If not, no worries, it will go into the 2028 show instead.

I am well armed with books, track plan, a 90% finished engine shed and drawings from the GER society for the water tower, GER 5 plank open and brake van in build from Mike Williams' kits and lots else besides.

Good evening, I'm still in the land of the living, despite an absence from this thread of over a decade! Other things have been built, like tunnels and viaduct, but now I've been revisiting the bridge during the winter and reached this stage. There should be a bit more about it in the forthcoming mag.

Does any one have an Alan Marsden BR Mk1 bogie GUV they would swap for a brand new Kingscale BR Mk 1 Maroon SK? Tx

Thank you, John.  A bit too far for me too but the weather could be okay in May.

Jon,
May 16th at the Gaydon Motor Museum, (Warwickshire, on the M40).
A bit far and out-of-the-way for me, so may not attend.
Regards,
John. 

I can't find my latest Newsletter. Can someone tell me please, when and where is the 2026 AGM being held?

I'm looking for some smokebox door handles. I've searched the internet and those suppliers that I know of but no joy.  I did think that Barrett's would have had something but sadly no. Does anyone know who might supply these?

Jon

these are all sold now
