I thought I'd show a few photos from last weekend's excellent GL5 event in Bath. A thoroughly good time was had by all. An excellent selection of locos, great company and as many as 50 wagons to shunt in the yard at times. Many thanks Nigel.

A very interesting report Mike and good to see the workshop area of the Forum being used just as it was designed to be. Thanks to your good self, Peter Robinson ( http://www.petersplates.co.uk ) and I crawled all over 7812 at the Severn Valley last week, so I thought a few people would appreciate se...

Pete has recently produced a fantastic set of Southern headboards for Southern locomotives, some of which can be viewed by heading to: http://shop.ebay.co.uk/i.html?_nkw=5%22+gauge+headboard&_sacat=0&_dmpt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&_odkw=5%22+gauge+%27The+Pines+Express%27+named+train+headboard&_osaca...

A few more 5'' gauge videos I've recently found on Youtube that I thought my interest a few...

A very smart paint job recently carried out on a Southern L1 Class. Note all the lining is painted by hand. Full credit to the painter Henry Mowforth, driver, fireman and engineer employee at the K&ESR.

I thought it would be good to get idea to get a thread running on some of the latest GL5 images from some of the most recent events. If you've got any shots you're pleased with, whether they're loco, wagon or coach based lets see them and hopefully Dave might be able to accommodate them in a future ...

I thought a few GL5 members might appreciate seeing a few of Pete's GWR headboards on a GWR locomotive. They really do set off the loco superbly and for more information and prices he can be contacted at Peter Robinson (pannierpedro@hotmail.com). Other BR headboards are also in stock so it's advised...

There's now a Pembroke Coast Express headboard now for sale too. It is made from nickle and the back ground colour is black. Would really set off any BR western region or GWR 5" gauge locomotives. It is fitted with an offset lamp bracket suitable for most GWR or BR Western region smoke box lamp brac...

Pete Robinson, a GL5 member has started producing headboards and plates. They're beautifully made and hand painted and I can vouch for them having bought the Cambrian Coast Express and The Royal Duchy. A couple can be found for sale here: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/5-gauge-The-Merseyside-Express-named-tr...

And three more of Geoff, Steve and Ballan enjoying their August Bank Holiday.

Here are a few more that I've re-sized ready for web upload.

Cheers, Mike

Hi all, I've just been taking a look through some of the photographs that I took at the August rally. I've worked on a selection of them but frustratingly the forum won't allow me to upload more than 3 at a time. I have plenty more on my hardrive, so if you were driving a particular engine and would...
