[align=left]A few night shots. I was going to line the fleet up but it was too cold…..[/align]
[align=left]One minor problem that has surfaced is that I need a tapered pin to use in the coupling, the straight one has to be too accurately held and the couplers have to be too closely aligned, not easy to do; impossible at night without the aid of a torch which I was too lazy to fetch….[/align]

Looks great at night, not that it doesn't look good in the daylight of course

Trev, you are a complete pain! Showing iconic pictures like this, you have just made me a bucket load of work on my line. You see I will now have I mean have to do working lights. How wonderful it all looks in your superb night shots. Arrrrggggg.

The lighting makes it... Fortunately I don't have a large tramway, if I did they would probably be just an ornamental feature.
As immodest as it may sound I especially like the way the lights in the yard have been coerced into throwing pools of light.
You have a time line??? WOW!!! I don't even have a plan which is why in 3 years I have only got as far as I have, if I hadn't stuffed around with methods of control and those damned cobblestones I'd be way ahead....

Trev, you are so right about the pools of light, so very atmospheric. As for the time line thing, nah just jesting!
