          WEST BOURNEGROOM

Despite all the work going on to create the scenery on our new American HO layout there is still  time to 'play trains' on our other layouts.


On the right is a recent running session in which a Caledonnan loco and train visited West Bournegroom station on our 'oo' layout.


The loco is DCC fitted and is a lovely smooth runner.


No one knows why it left its train  in the platform and then came back for it.
