By end of week, some second hand rollingstock

This week the family went away to Noosaville for five nights. I did take along some NSWGR kits (Silvermaz from memory) just in case the weather became foul, but this didn't happen. Most days were either overcast or fine and this didn't stop the boys from wanting to go to the pool at least twice a day, so no free time for modelling while away! Back to reality (read home) on Friday. Saturday I mentored Lachlan with his diorama by explaining tree placement. He has done really well on his little diorama and it is probably finished for entry into the Club Xmas modelling competition.

Saturday night I spent an hour on the Raspberry Pi wanting to progress the JMRI functionality but the upgrades/updates that I started took up the whole hour (and a bit more!) so didn't get anywhere near JMRI.

Sunday was the Club's Open Day and Buy and Sell. I went down early to help setup but the sellers had arrived early and all was done. We had a good turn out of sellers, buyers and visitors. I purchased a couple of second hand HO log wagons for Lachlan ($10), and did a deal on three second hand OO open wagons and a flatbed ($10) for Matthew to use behind his Toby engine as he has been borrowing Lachlan's Annie and Clarabel. Both were over the moon and were tested on Lachlan's layout not long after I got home. I myself purchased a Ratio GWR OO scale box van kit for $10 to build when I get a chance!

So this week I am hoping to progress the terraces build. If time and forum answers allow, progress with the Raspberry Pi, JMRI and wifi!
