and brought out a reasonable number of visitors.

Our fifth Steam Day of 2006,
was another sweltering one, with the track also suffering
from the heat as we had a few derailments.

Our fourth Steam Day of 2006,
held on Sunday 02 July, was a bit of a slow starter, so
much so that we began to wonder if we were the only people
daft enough to be interested in hot, smokey steam trains
on such a hot day.
Then things picked up somewhat later on, and we were
running mainly full trains through the afternoon.

Everything went smoothly and according to plan. Appointment of Don Neighbour as Honorary Chairman, many
thanks to Ted Reynolds for his year in the job.
Appointment of Alan Waredraper as Chairman Elect.
All other officials were pursuaded (gently, of course!)
to remain in their current roles.
Reports were taken on various matters, including the
2006 Exhibition
which is progressing nicely.
Every year the Hugh Gwyther Trophy (named after a long-standing
late I & WEMRC member) is presented to someone the
committee feels has made the most significant contribution
to the club, and this year it was awarded to Jonathan Casey
for his extensive work in organising and modernising the club library.

Our second Steam Day of the 2006
season was held on Sunday 07 May, and this time we were
favoured with much better weather - hot and sunny all day.
|
Also a landmark day for Thomas Junior (pictured right),
by our reckoning pulling passengers for the first time
this millennium in the club's service.

Victors Models
held a special open evening after normal hours for
I & WEMRC members.
The evening was quite well attended, just short of a dozen
club members turned up, saw demonstrations of various DCC systems,
and spent some money!
Thanks to all at Victors for an enjoyable evening.

Our first Steam Day of the
season was held on Sunday 02 April 2006. Everything
went smoothly, other than the weather which was an
interesting and unpredictable mix of pleasant spring day
and tropical storm!
