Our Railway

As mentioned in the newsletter I didn't take many pictures. A big thanks to Richard Foyn and Tony Walker for the following pictures.

Hercules No. 07 visiting from Plymouth

It was nice to have a visiting steam engine. This one is a Maxitrak Saphire, pictured here being steamed on a raised track. Actually this frame is an old coffee table with angle iron welded on to it.

The foorbridge and station area. As can be seen this day did get rather busy.

Hercules No. 07 and the Saphire ran on the inner loop.

This engine is a credit to Bernard Webb who has gone to great lengths in detailing.

Hercules No.08. Another super detailed engine. This engine lives on a garden railway in Romford.

Another regular visitor to our line is a Blackgates Charlaton.

With both loops in action we put our automatic signal system in to action. These two signals are operated by a combination of track circuiting and a switch on the staff pole.
