Erecting a garden railway.
« on: April 05, 2020, 09:56:10 am »
Hi,

It has been a very pleasant day here in Old South Wales so it was decided to erect the parts of our garden railway that have been stored in our garage over Winter.


Take care and stay healthy.

Tony.

That's a great way to get things started Tony - makes me think about doing a little leveling after the frost heave and getting something running also.
Regards,
Larry

Hi,

With the sun shining and getting bored with laying track on the new layout I thought I would play with a steam locomotive.

 

Take care stay safe.

Ah Tony, that was delightful. I've been thinking of doing a little railroading myself while sequestering here at home, but it is currently snowing and will be on and off for the rest of the week it seems, so your steam run was just what the doctor ordered ..... the perfect Rx for a day like today!
