AMRA WA Annual Exhibition 2018 - Day 2

Hey hey, day two of the annual AMRA WA Exhibition brought with it beautiful day to be inside playing trains. Ops Manager Mr Blinco decided to change the standard operating procedures of the layout to keep trains running on the display side of the layout but once we had practiced under supervision, we were left to our own devices without a single derailment. The layout and trains operated faultlessly and we managed only a few close calls for head-on collisions but all were able to be avoided. All in all, another good day was had by staff and public. Only 1 day left for this years exhibition, do not miss out as tomorrow promises to be different with new rolling stock on display.
