The loco is a USA Trains GP9 in SF scheme and it was hauling four cars and a van.

We returned home 26 days later, to find the train still running round, covered with bird cr&p and sundry dirt from the many showers that had happened - it was June in UK after all.

26 days and no derails

Nossir. NO derails. My track was circular with only the one point that it approached from the facing direction. No points = no reason the derail.

Love the bit about the birds.

Some of the birds in my garden ignore the trains as long as I don't go to fast.
Sometimes they come right up to it and nip over the top to carry on their business.
