Off on the trains

Great wee trip on Sunday when we spent an hour or two with the Rugby and Rainsbrook engineering society taking young Edward for a ride on the trains. When our children were little these scale model trains used to ride past the fence in our back garden when we lived in Rainsbrook  Avenue. Kerry, Laura and Scott used to wave to the passengers as they passed by.

Some 24 years ago the trains moved to a permanent site on the Barby Road, where the members have built a fantastic scale railway on which to run their model trains. Since then we asa a family have had no need of such fun but now we are grandparents the circle turns again and so we set off to enjoy their open day on Sunday with young Edward Lord .

It was a treat and the site is a real tribute to the members enthusiasm, its huge and due to be expanded next year. This is the stuff that puts the Great back in Britain and long may the members keep on travelling on their wee trains enjoying  their all consuming passion.

 Thanks for sharing boys and girls and keep on steaming!
