I'm just hoping the weather improves as Beaver Creek (mike) is coming over Thursday to give me a hand.

Must admit my knee's are creaking a bit, how about navvie C16 and the double deck tram :callme:
 
Looks good. An effective way of setting up track
 
Chief civil engineer of the San Juan Central RR has been out to check the paddy field that the railway has to cross, and can now confirm that the water table is some six inches below ground level. :thumbup::thumbup: He states that if he were to build a race course the going would be classed as soft. Not withstanding that if the weather warms up as is forecast for later this week, work will recommence on grading with a view to opening of the San Juan Central on the 15th of September this year. :)
 
Well as its been a nice day for a change, no wind, rain and nice and warm, a bit more has been done to the track foundations :bigsmile::bigsmile:

Who has been a busy little beaver?

Good progress there Jerry
 
Well four sunny days on the trot, and some more done on the San Juan Central. Starting to raise the track foundations up to their correct levels.
