Great to see you have a running line again. Look forward to seeing it develop.

Re: REBIRTH OF FWLR
Son in law has done a good job, could he do my decking replacement?
As Tom said, you have track....all is good.

You've not wasted any time, Rod. Looks like you're up and running already.

Excellent work. I could use a son-in-law! Must see about getting one. You have somewhere to run trains now Rod. Looks great so far.

Re: REBIRTH OF FWLR
You make that sound so easy..... I have two grown-up sons but no in-laws. My elder son would only be keen on one who was heiress to a brewery and had her own fleet of vintage tractors, which she restored and maintained herself.... see, easy!
The best things in life are free.... so why am I doing this?
Re: REBIRTH OF FWLR
Thanks for your replies guys. It was a case of getting someone to do most of it for me, or us not having one finished until at least the end of the year, possibly even longer. But on the health side I am feeling positive, just need to take my time and rest every now and again.
But I can always ask….
It wasn’t that easy to get the Son-in-law Peter, honest. Anne had to bribe him with offers of Bud’s and plenty of Burgers…Peter Butler wrote: ↑Mon Aug 13, 2018 9:44 pm You make that sound so easy..... I have two grown-up sons but no in-laws.

I am now doing mostly rolling stock and building, but hopefully I can get to run something and maybe do some more on the track it self Graham.
Unfortunately Derek, he has now gone back abroad with his cycling job until the end of September and then he plans on having a holiday with his family.
But I can always ask….

Re: REBIRTH OF FWLR
Well, I am so thankful to the Son-in-Law Rik, otherwise we wouldn’t have been able to do a lot on it without his help.

Re: REBIRTH OF FWLR
Always tongue in cheek Rod, reckon I'll get by! Got a train fix yesterday as we trudged up a cloudy Snowdon, actually getting the train tomorrow but not building my hopes up to see anything....again...
Re: REBIRTH OF FWLR
So was my answer mate…
We haven’t been on a day trip on a steamer for ages, in fact this memory of mine really can’t remember when we did
