looks very good Mel
Cheers Paul.
Gareth dropped in this afternoon. Some of you may remember he won a Pola hay tedder kit in the GRail raffle? Well, having made it up, he decided it didn't fit in with his railway - so he very kindly donated it to the WGLR. I'm really chuffed with it. This is still a work in progress as far as the wagons concerned (too clean ), but I think it looks the bizz .

I've got a bit of a problem with the WGLR at the moment as the mostly dry, windy weather is blowing loads of debris out of the trees including twigs, leaves and lilac flower petals. Added to that is all the pollen from the apple tree. So running can be a bit challenging at the mo .......
But Heidi takes it all in her stride and ploughs on reliably through the lot .
She is a little on the large side, but the Accucraft W&L stock looks in proportion being a slightly larger scale than LGB.
Hmm, twigs, leaves, pollen, plant & insect debris sounds all very familiar, but worth it...most days
Heidi looks a treat

Flush with success with the Heidi sound effects video ( ), I've made a video of Heidi pulling the sawmill express for a full lap of the WGLR.
No, it's not really Autumn .

Grat video Mel!
I'd nominate you for an Oscar, but I guess you'd rather have a Heidi....

And finally, back to Wetton ......... soon to be re-named Lilac Valley?
Looking very good Mel
Could it be. . . perhaps the W&L Wagons were actually from a little known
'Wetton & Lilac' outfit bought out by Wetton Gooey???
