Operations have now ceased due to the weather (a good 20cms and still snowing) but I had a good go at keeping the line open last night!!
Clip one about 4 pm when just keeping the train moving was enough to stay open.

Clip two about 9pm when it had started to snow heavily- this clip is ploughing what was ploughed only one lap ago!

Apologies to Tac who may be pained seeing what I was doing to his beautifully looked after alco of which I am now custodian! Sir, the snow was dusted off while still frozen, so I am hopeful she hasn't suffered too much. I have fitted a sound off switch though, to allow late night running such as this!
