D1037

Not going to mention the bit where you borrowed a loco and broke it then? In fairness, it wasn't all your fault, after three days, the controller on Empress gave in to the rain, and the plugcoupler came undone (I should really have told you about that!). I don't think the Brake Van had been running on seized axle's for the wholes 5-6 years it has been there though. Shame someone turned the wheels up over night, it would have been much more authentic hearing the occasional flat spot! Another fantastic weekend though. Here's to many more to come!

The lever frame is a Westinghouse Miniature lever frame, but I can't remember where it came from. At the end of the branch there is also a terminus (The single line section worked via the BR standard Block Instruments), complete with overall train shed, based on the structure of Bath Green Park Station. Cracking day over there on Saturday, work preventing me from spending the weekend there. Next time though....

And not a single shot of the best looking engine there (A green Western), how disapointing. Those Met coach's do look lovely though. Off down to London for a few nights work now,earn the penny's to buy bits and finish the wagons I've been threating to finish for the last two years!
