It Begins!

With the arrival a few days ago, today was the first trains to use the new line. With 4 yards out of the eventual 10 yard run now in my pocession, it seemed like a good time to test out the small track. Today also saw the introduction into service of the new Accucraft Pairs Coach. One of a eventual pair, this coach will form the main passenger train on the line.

The total run of 4 yards

Welcome!

Welcome to the line's website. The railway is currently at the planning stage although it is hoped construction will start soon. The line's stock is currently run at other people's railways while construction takes place. I've included some shots of the last running day the stock went to below.




Cheers,

Jon
