July Meeting 2019

Hey hey, a good turnout at this month's meeting with 33 members showing up for the meeting. The theme of the meeting was Terminus Stations of the WAGR which have good modeling and operational potential. Graham Watson provided a very informative slide presentation with photos of several key stations including Newdegate, Esperance and Flinder's Bay to name a few. Of course there were the usual Bring and Shows as well as updates from AMRA and regarding the recent exhibition and the upcoming AGM. Photos of the bring and show are below, so please enjoy.

Niels Kroyer displayed his completed (minus decals) GA Models RA class 4 plank open wagon with fox bogies.
John Bajkowski's scratch-built yard crane for  his home layout based on Wyalkatchem.
Alison Kelly recently purchased a DA class locomotive kit from Marbelup Models with the recently modified mechanism to accept ViTrains bogies and motor.
Neil Blinco displayed a neat pen organiser made from one of John Gaspari's 10mm X class cabs. 
Roger Palmer has been working on the flour mill for the East Guildford layout using  card which will have brick paper added later.
John Morrison missed our previous meeting on jigs for modeling so displayed his bogie assembling jig for us to view.
