Are you fully converted to battery power now Rik ?
How is the MYOB faring along the stream ? (Perhaps a pic, hint hint :D)

Paul, not quite - I think I need one more steam outline loco to complete the fleet (like to have a loco in reserve) - but I have enough motive power to run a full operating session now.

The MYOB is still fairly dormant, but I did need to clear a path for the trains to run. The railbus out today as I could only manage a short running session.

Good to see you out running again. Great locos. Looks like you haven't had too much problem with all your rain.

We were lucky in the NW (which is quite unusual as normally we're the first to greet the weather off the Atlantic (after Ireland of course).

The new loco looks absolutely wonderful Rik. Don't suppose you fancy making a kit of it? ;D ;D

I wish I had the skills, Mel, and the entrepreneurial spirit. By the time I've finished a loco I'm usually a bit sick of it (mind you, by the time I've done it, I then know how I should have made it!) ;D

Fantastic railcar. What´s the origin?
 
Thanks for the encouraging comments folks. Yes, those daffs look like spectators at an Open Day.
Am considering re-ballasting the track as it's a few years since I did it last and most of it seems to have disappeared.

Thanks Mike - I like the way that area has developed as well - more by luck than careful planning
