I had a great time at the BVWS 40th anniversary at the Sandford Mill, Chelmsford.
It was a very interesting place with lots to see. Loads of history mementos about Marconi and his pioneering days. There was a very interesting talks about the formation and history of the society by Tony Constable and David Read. The highlight of the afternoon for me was the talk by Tim Wander on the history of 2MT Writtle.
Here are some photos of model engines taken at the museum.
This model appeared to be a working model capable of being powered by gas to heat the water for steam, loads of miniature steam valves
more engines
and one for Bob
