John L has been busy and has clamped some of the new steel bits and pieces together that will be the beginnings of the new N scale layout in the clubrooms.
It is not the final resting place of course, as it will move back towards the HO layout until the outer edge of the layout is level with the left hand edge of the window you can see.
It is now just over 3 months away - the N Scale convention which is down in Adelaide next year that is.
Remember - Early Bird Registrations close on the 31st of May.
