a buggered buffer. Its clearly been driven over by summat.

We removed the track as it was all a bit untidy and could do with relaying. Plenty of "umps and hollers" to rid ourselves of!

We did have a minor issue with trespassers. The offenders were let off with a warning :D

The white cable marks the boundaries of the proposed signal box.

The end of the line, looking so much better for our efforts. We relayed the track to sort the levels out, then put earth between the ballast shoulders and the kerbstones to supprt the ballast. The earth was removed from where the track will be extended to, so we made progress here too. The other side of the track was supported by wooden battens wedged against the ballast shoulders and the boundary fence. Once we had put some pea shingle in the battened areas it looked rather nice.

Stephen playing with Livvy. A first was made here, as the loco is actually running bunker first in this pic, towing off its front coupling. The body was off because it was grumbling a bit, and I wasn't particularly happy about it all!

Livvy (now with the body on and the owner a little bit happier about it all) and the Metropolitan brake 3rd by Aristocraft, posing at the tidied up headshunt at the end of the line.

"the way ahead". Livvy at the stop flag, looking toward the future extension.

The team. From Left to Right, myself, Stese, Stephen Trower, Jonathan Riddell and Adrian Allum. The pic was taken by Mohamoud, the security guard, who graciously puts up with us mad miniature railway lot!
