Just read this thread right through from the beginning and have to say its very inspiring Great workmanship, well done.
Thanks, but I have to report the landscaping paths and steps and the railway's terra forming have not progressed, the hot weather and frequent rain has the weeds waist high again. I have been away at the Rattler the last three days and the weeds are 2 feet higher. Maybe by next summer we will have progressed the POR over the cooler months.

Thanks, I will pass on your comments to MAM.
One day the cement will disappear, the terra firming will be done and the planting underway, The Under arch bridge that is here will be installed and then night time runs will be we hope very photogenic.

Excellent progress Dazza. It looks like there will be some impressive scenery on this line.

Missed previous updates for some unknown reason. Really like the signals and lever frame and good to see the bike building skills finding an application!
Good to see steam on the rails. Must have been an historic moment ...

Certainly coming on well, and to a very high standard to boot.

Good to see progress on the POR and MAMs Lady Anne. Run time will improve when it's fully run in and MAM gets used to the settings.

MAM thanks all for the kind compliments, they are much appreciated.
I will make arrangements for the Bollywood film crew to shoot this weekend.

I rather like the slightly surreal moonscape effect, especially in the last photo...
Nice to see some steam on your line, looking forward to further photos in due course.
All the best,
Andrew.

Looks to be hard work there Dazza. Must admit though, the tunnel will be fantastic when you have it finished. Looking forward to more on the progress.
Like MAM in her supervisory role...

I have seen MAM doing so much to help with your line before Dazza. She is a star isn't she.
Mmmm, Butternut squash.....
