The Woodlock Line

Watch for the tunnel digger crossing the street

No worries, the speed LT move with their upgrades, Duncan's great-grandkids will need to be the one's to worry about that!

Not much to report, it's been raining all day. But got a few new plants for the front garden, after a conifer casualty, probably because of the recent hot weather. The grass continues to get greener, and this rain must surely help.

A trip to that there super secret, secret rock pile, somewhere secret.

Just to dress the side of the turning circle and make it look a little more natural. And, decided to repoint the garden path......

Joy.

 

[duncan1_9_8_4]

And a little treat. I decided to get a new ring camera to monitor the turning circle. We already have a few cameras on the property, but decided this would be a good way of monitoring the turning circle out front, when sat in the back garden. The original idea was a Playmobil camera, but decided on something more permanent. Here's the results....

The Playmobil camera has since been out to better use elsewhere.

I doubt Ring intended that their door camera be used for such duties, but it works very well. Did the PM Camera go to your Dad or are you using it for cab driving purposes?

Ha, this and that. Quite interesting to have it on the train front.

Super enjoyable day today. Not. Renewed all the power to track cables, good as new.

The ring camera has bedded in nicely. More of a novelty, but serves a purpose too.

When out and about, such as today, we can see that all is quiet at the extent of the railway!

A little pre autumn clean up, point check, track clean, and foliage tidy. Nice dry day, but windy, so heavy rolling stock is in order.

Brilliant. I think they did one in yellow too, an easy conversion.

 

[duncan1_9_8_4]

And a few more. Running like a dream.

And then I decided to put a new siding in, but ran out of screws for the ample clamps that I have..... How....?

The tricksy clamp gremlins delight in squirreling* screws away just before you need them.
They are close cousins to the sock imps who scarper off with single socks from the laundry.

*Yes, cap'n, tree rats are behind it all.

Another Sunday possession gone pear shaped, no change there, control will be pulling their hair out to get the railway back for the first train on Monday morning
Do I miss it? Not in the slightest!!

Siding, hah! It’s the launching pad for further empire building.
