Thanks very much Peter, I suspect that your climate in west Wales is very similar to mine in Lancashire, and I also suspect that the rainfall here is what has done in my ballast thus far. I already have some SBR purchased from Wickes for £18.50 for a 5L container. I'm not in any real rush for puttin...

Using SBR for fixing ballast
Long time no post (well nearly) for me on here, but the last few weekends I have been reviving my Afonglas and Nant Llwyd Railway from a state of near dereliction. After removing all of the overgrowth and tidying up the plant life (3 afternoons work) I found three sections where the concrete trackbe...

If it is not too far away for you, then it sounds like the Hampton Loade Paddock Railway at the Severn Valley Railway might be a good place to try the garratt out on, from what I have seen it is a big railway and they seem to be welcoming to visitors too.

For the last 1 1/2 years I've been on the staff of the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway, in a variety of temporary roles. My main expertise is P-way, guarding and now shunter driver, but I have also worked in the booking office (and still do occasionally) and also alas as loo cleaner for both Ravengla...

A very nice loco to top off a lovely railway. Me and my uncle own a Ride on Railways Trojan, alas whilst my garden has a reasonable length 32mm line the shape and slope of it (and the fire engine living in it) make a 5 inch gauge line impossible. The Trojan runs on the Joys of Life Railway in Wales ...
