I'm off sick today so figured some time in the warm sunshine would do me good! and trains to keep me company.............
Started out with the track cleaner and a Stainz to help it along.
Is it just me or does anybody else find the LGB cleaner a bit finicky? I always have to pull it around to make it work proper like..........
Wow I need to straighten that tower out!!

Does the signalman have one leg shorter than the other?!
A bit like Welsh sheep, apparently.

After the Stainz along came a tram engine with short mixed train..........

For a big Loco the old Krok is a bit wimpy it will only pull three of the cars up my grades! mind you I havn't added any weight to this one the other one has about 2Ib's of lead in it and it will pull all 9 carriges up the hill!
I do like the wizzy cranks on these Loco's my other Kroc has sound? sort of goes MMMmmm MMMmmm MMMmmm

Nice Pullman coaches, I quite fancied a rake of those myself when I was still 16milling.
However now that I have gone 1/12th I shall simply enjoy pictures of other peoples.

I do occassionaly run the whole rake but the railway is a bit small for all of them to be out
Bit like the tahachapi loop!
