I like that little bridge section. Was it necessary for access or just a visual highlight?

Just a visual highlight I guess....

Nothing much to report today.... Garden done, new strimmer tested, and didn't go through any cables.... The weather, is frankly crap....

Oh and the beginning of a small end of line halt, suitable for the rail bus service.....

Obviously, everybody is fighting for space, to get a photo...

Russell (who was acting as Fireman) tending to 'Russell' at Caernarfon..

So was the best I could do..

A few station enhancements in-between doing the bathroom....

Another addition from Schleich, and the simple end of line halt, now has a stone wall border.

Seriously, G Scale suppliers should stock some of the Schleich stuff.

Nigel proving his capabilities as an inconvenience.....

Just taking the sun and helping to keep a bit of track from buckling in the heat.

Pardon?
Who is being an 'inconvenience' to Whom!?

You are a rubbish cat! Know your place!

Just a glimpse of your Union Flag flying behind your railway.

Definitely the right way up, though I didn't realise it had faded so badly. New one on order

For Nigel there is a very simple solution......but a difficult assiment.....
Make a piece of track that will lead to a sunny spot in the garden, no fancy, just working.
Make a haevy loco with a tip of a fishing rod, put some play mouse or treads at the end.....giude/trick the cat into that spot you want him to be.....

Oh yes...lots of luck

Getting a cat to go where you want it? Too impossible to believe even before breakfast.

 

[duncan1_9_8_4]

Not much wind today, but the new flag is flying...

 

[duncan1_9_8_4]

Major investment at the end of the line. Two benches and a litter bin.
Just down the line, the alpine plants are doing quite well.

Just a quick test to make sure everything is functioning ok....
Guest appearance from Nigel too....

So how did Nigel lose the top of his left ear - fighting, sunburn, or not getting off the line fast enough?

He used to be a ferral before we got him from the Cats Protection. He came up in the world from street to house

Cat ear tip missing | Blog

Removing the tip of a feral cat's ear is an internationally-recognised sign that they have been neutered.

we live rural, and we have some wild cats in the fields, yes we tried them to get them inside....
We succeeded, but after you close the door....they went buncoes....
i think Nigel is more half domesticated in his youth, probably a farm cat.
Those ones can be domesticated...wild ones no, sorry
It takes only one generation to get them 100% wild, those ones cannot be domesticated, sorry
