A new year, a new start

[bigjack]

Managed to get a few trains running this evening But I think I've a bit of track work to do, found one or two dead pieces of track, a call to a certain G Scale retailer in South Wales may be in order to get some rail clamps.

Been a busy weekend here, after the winter, found that we had several dead places on the track. After investigation, loose joints were found to be the cause.

So, after a trip to a certain G Scale retailer in South Wales, several Massoth railclamps were procured, a big track maintenance programme was started.

This was one of the problem tracks

[bigjack]

Had a day off work today, so, after a trip into Colchester (had to pay for the new car) a day on the railway was the order of the day.

The tarmac gang have been at work, laying the road at Palm Junction. Job done

 

[bigjack]

Once the road was laid, the shops opened.

But come closing time, the tram stop was busy

And the street entertainers (Ok then beggars) were out and about
