rural line = rural cats - steam scares them up the trees !

the rock and earth shifting is mainly by shovel and trailer - as there's so much to do

Oh the wonder of that wide open space, my next Garden (i hope) will be as open as this so that I can get my scenery to end with real scenery rather than Houses. Very nice start with loads to do and keep you busy. Good luck,

thanks - open space means a lot of rock to shift, planting etc

Veeeeeery nice, that is now taking shape and turning out to be a first class line. Enjoy
 
snow and visiting grandson at the weekend prompted the use of track power again
with no cleaning of steamie gubbins, and a centimeter of snow, the Stainz got on with the job manfully
Impressive little engine
