I also remember seeing Rhyd and ALR at that show but I have had to good fortune to have seen both much more recently.

?

I guess I started in 014 when Roy first introduced his range in the 1980’s.? However it took a lot longer for me to actually build the intended layout!? I had amassed quite a range of locos and stock in the intervening period and still have a lot left to build.? I really do need a bigger 014 layout (and a 16.5 one as well for all my existing GVT based stock).? One can dream!

?

Cheers, Robin

Yes happy anniversary to fellow O14ers. I'm not sure Mark is still on the group or even active in O14. This was originally a Yahoo group and I joined as member no.2. We were an early transition to groups.io so didn't have to pay (she it's still free).

It is also just over 10 years since I exhibited the PLR at ExPong. That was a great day alongside David with Rhyd and David Malton with his ALR.

?

After nearly 3 years the PLR is installed now with the traverser built ExPong14 and I've nearly completed the circuit of hidden track which will enable the grandchildren to drive trains nose to tail - they're still a bit young for shunting. Thoughts are turning towards more locos, a large rake of clay wagons and the tippler.
