Much the same everywhere I think,Trevor. We certainly haven't been able to get out and do anything more than a bit of pruning of last years die back.Trevor Thompson wrote: ↑Fri Apr 05, 2024 9:52 am
It has been so wet here that Dinah has only got 2 of her beds ready to plant, and one planted up.
Interesting that you are getting lots of rain as well!Old Man Aaron wrote: ↑Fri Apr 05, 2024 4:18 pm A lot of rain down my way too, for a long time. Nice to see things pushing forward.

The locomotive is the one I have just fitted the "Cheapo Chinese Sound Card" to. I have also fitted a geared motor and metal bevel gears, which explains the smooth slow running.

Me too, it sounded quite blustery at that point- I was expecting any moment for the brake van to take a short-cut .....Peter Butler wrote: ↑Sun Apr 07, 2024 9:58 am Wonderful video Trevor, proper train in natural surroundings. I was a little anxious as it crossed the trestle, though.
Yes you are not the only one who worries about trains crossing the trestle viaduct! however I have no qualms about it - I have never had any issues with it. It seems quite prototypical to me - in that the tallest dry stone viaduct is on the Ffestiniog railway, with no railings, and they don't seem to have had anything fall off it.Peter Butler wrote: ↑Sun Apr 07, 2024 9:58 am Wonderful video Trevor, proper train in natural surroundings.
