Not much model engineering this last year , due to some home improvements that had to be done and a lot of work at school. But there were some driving days at tracks in the Netherlands.
Here some photos from these events in Groningen and Den Haag.
Driving a Stroudley Terrier on 5" gauge. Very nice loco
The 14xx in steam
The 14xx, a tiny loco compared to a German Br64 (back) or the Dutch Railways 1100 (front). All are 5" gauge locos
These shots were taken at the end of May at the track of Nienoord, Leek (Groningen)
Unloading the loco at the track of Stoomgroep West Zuiderpark Den Haag. Their open days were on 15 and 16 June 2019 .
The T3 is dwarfed against the big GWR Penrhos Grange
But no problem to keep up with the bigger engines
Picking up a goods train
Entering the main station, passing under the signal gantry. The station is at the heart of this impressive layout
German loco, English Ale!
Glenn has an awkward driving position, but this gave him a nice viewpoint when driving.
Passing the signal box, entering the busy station.
Driving through the Zuiderpark; how lovely.
