Stour valley dream - The first pick-up goods
Over the last couple of weeks I managed to get the remaining line in the platform laid and wire up the remainder of the track. The result means that I can now play at shunting trains in and out of the goods yard.I tried with a mix bag of stock in terms of springing/compensation/solid axles and my fussiest locomotive - an unsprung Hornby class 31 (must order new sprung chassis from Mr Rumney soon). I filmed the result.
We had a few days away last week and stayed in a beautifully renovated station at Rowden Mill near Bromyard on the old Worcester to Leominster line. The station was restored by the previous owner and is now available as a holiday cottage https://www.rowdenmillstation.uk/
The platform has a line of track and there is a ground frame and some shunting signals.
A wagon sits in the cattle dock.
The original signal diagram is framed in the old waiting room (now lounge)
Yesterday was a trip to Scaleforum at Aylesbury. I bought some more rail so I can start on the next baseboard!
