North 3 (CMCR 9) Last 2015 appearances.
Aug 23rd, 2015, 10:50am
 
The veteran privately-restored BBC Type-2 scanner CMCR 9 of 1969, formerly LO5/Midland/North 3 will be on public display at the Shrewsbury Steam Rally at Onslow Park.

Please note that the show is on Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday 30th and 31st August, so don't turn up on the Saturday or you will be disappointed! This will be the last outing of the summer for North 3. The only other outing this year will probably be Salford Quays in October.

The organizer's website for Onslow Park Steam Rally is :-  http://www.shrewsburysteamrally.co.uk/

Steve Harris's website is :- http://www.vintageradio.co.uk    

(He's the owner. Loads of stuff about North 3 on there.).

If you plan to go, then make yourselves known to the the 'OB Crew!"

This is from Jerry Clegg.

"The veteran OB scanner North 3 / CMCR9  is to have an extra outing this year, which was not previously announced.

Next weekend we will be at the Malpas Yesteryear Rally in Cheshire. That's Saturday and Sunday 12th and 13th September."

The organizer's web sight is :-  http://www.malpas-yesteryear-rally.co.uk

We will be very pleased to see any friends or former colleagues who can make it there. We hope the weather will be kinder than it was last weekend at Shrewsbury, when the scanner got bogged down on departure! Fortunately plenty of tractive effort was available to get us on our way!"
