I thought I'd resurrect this thread as there have been a couple of developments in this project. At the rate I'm going, this railway will have a longer history than the LNER!
Anyhow, more track has been bought. The railway will now feature double track, two long passing loops and a largish engine shed. And a new loco arrived at Christmas, courtesy of my wife. A green 'Peak', D67 Royal Artilleryman. I'm hoping to use my birthday money ( 50 years old today and Mum and Dad gave me £40!
) to get the underlay tomorrow which should make the running that little bit sweeter and less noisy. And then I'll stick the track down at last.
I must admit that Ian announcing that he is to start a model has spurred me on a bit. A year into this project and I have still got virtually nowhere. And on top of that, Syd has almost finished with N and is thinking of starting something in OO! I'm gonna have to get my skates on and get the track down at least.
