Sunday Evening Pictures

Just caught up with the latest pictures of this fine line. That picture of the double-slip and boxcars (in post 296 I think) is one of the best I've seen recently. Really atmospheric. :thumbup:
 
Thanks for the comments Peter, I am working extra shift at the moment waiting for the cream of the crop to return to campus, cant wait to get the railway back to its normal three day week,​

I managed to snatch a few hours today wind was gusty so had to watch the boxcars, used the branchline and found it a bit overgrown just after two weeks, stopped the loco in its tracks, need the help of Agent Orange,

Spot on with both, thats my recycling Gondola, and it takes a few weeks to fill on my own, hic hic, the weeds are a new happening, all because my landlord chopped his trees down and let the 'sun' shine in

Tommorow I start demolishing the first part of the line I built, it has sank by almost five inches now so tired of trying to make it work,last trains have ran through till rebuilt,
​
 
Lovely looking pic's Pete :thumbup:
Has your line sunk due to all this wonderful sun shine were having .
 
Not so much Global warming as dead tree root shrinkage, but been planning a newer and more extended yard layout with extra loops and I have even been planning doubling the main running tracks as well.,

After last weeks running session I decided to start demolishing part of the railway,​
​
it was part of the original and was on set up as a temporary test rack, it lasted three years but was well rotten,​
​
I will use steel supports and frame for the new one,​
​
it had sunk at one end almost five inches, ​

Hey Pete - don't know if you've noticed but that trackbed is knackered :bigsmile:

I agree with Steven, your Saddletank Porter is nice - so much better looking than the sidetank version.
