a nice night to sit out tonight

 

[matthew]

A slightly revised trackplan, trying to create the ability to sit and watch, or have a bit more operational interest

 

[matthew]

Well, every track plan been drawn up so far has changed now that work has begun

Firstly, the new station area has been completed with track virtually layed

 

[matthew]

Around the front of the garden, a good 18inches of height had to be found to keep track as level as possible, been alot of work but it's 2/3rd's of the way there now

Looking brilliant Matt,nice wood work

 

[matthew]

Thank's Steve

Back up to date

Wood protected, both upper and lower level tracks laid/ballasted, station platform part built

 

[matthew]

Multi-level step built with track laid, but only the bottom step has the track sunk in currently

Using a decking system to hold the track build up the railway and smarten up the garden is inspired mate well done.

Also loved the pic of the track along side the pond with the train relflection in the water lovely shot mate.

Well lots of nice weather recently, but not a lot has been run...too busy with other projects

Firstly, an old signal box that got started is close to being finished

 

[matthew]

Lastly, a large bridge was needed for along side the pond to carry the inner loop, still as yet unfinished (more brickwork and chain needed), but you get the jist

Overall length is just over 7ft...
