Nice red car.  What is and where did you get the drive link chain?

The chain comes from a friend, I don't know the supplier.

I went at Saint Alban exhibition. It was a super exhibtion. I meet few english friends like Gordon and Maggy Gravett, Christopher Payne, ... I learn a lot about to do building, forced perspective, ... I learn also how to do  herbs with Maggy Gravett herself in french !

I had the opportunity to met also 7/8th scaler.

I come with Jean-Pierre Duval, my french friend that design and built the mack 2 tons.

I meet two teenagers at the exhibitions : Jamie and Josh. They was very pleased with the layout, so I left them the throttle during the 2 days. They were very efficient and studious. For my part I love to design and built a layout but not to run it.

Sounds like a successful visit. Your models look quite satisfactory. -- Russ

It's great to see younger ones involved in train operations! They are the ones responsible to keep the hobby alive.

I just come back from an exhibition in Belgium at Linter. It was a small exhibition but with an high level of layouts.

It's a rural village and one of the speciality is the beer, a drink highly appreciate by my driver. So my driver decide to promote this excellent beverage.



For the fun my friend add a pelican that stolen the fishes



There is also a fight between the seagul and the pelican



There are also 2 beautifull animals that took place in the boat



I add also during the exhibition a seagull on the top of the house and droppings



Like you can see I'm not a serious modellers and in Belgium they have a special sense of humour.

Frank, It's good to see that you enjoy your module and it sounds like the Belgian exhibition was just right for your humor.
