Re:Broome Lake & Eastern RR
Today more progress on the BL&E, with the introduction of Mountain Junction. With thanks to Dud and Steve (not of this parish) for a great day
The buffer stops are where Dudley's MMR will "plug in", or used as a siding for a banking loco (or should that be helper ?)
(You were right Dud
)

Re:Broome Lake & Eastern RR
A little more track laid today - Mountain Junction becomes Butler Sidings - until such time as the MMR connects.
The BL&E will eventiually link these two stubs.......
Or should it be called the Bluebell Railway ( has that name been used ?
)

Just got here after a long time away from the Forum.
#20 looks the biz - nice conversion and, looking at the size of the cylinders, presumably powerful. If you line wasn't all one level I'd have put it down as a helper loco. Amazing how a tankless loco can look so different.
The work car you had from me looks much better in grey as a boom-car. Very nice MOW set-up.

Excellent railway and I do like the colours/weathering of your locos and stock. Yes a good place for an open day!

Re:Broome Lake & Eastern RR
After a promising start to the year, things stalled somewhat due to the [strike]bloody awful[/strike] inclement weather.
But at long last the gang arrived (well Dudley - thanks Dud - plus Steve and Pete, not known to this Parish) and the boards have been laid for the complete circuit.
Dudley's a bit knackered after a heap of sawing.....
And a hint of what it will look like......
