This is fine decomposed granite, it packs down hard just by walking on it and so often used for walking trails here. It will provide a stable bed for the concrete track bed, but we will scrape it out where we need some depth for the garden soil.

Re: The Potters Orchid Railway
Had to get another 1/2 cubic meter of decomposed graniteto finish and give a bed for the form work/ boxing. Later it will be caved out and the plan is a shallow valley and heavily forested area in the corner.

Looking nice that Dazza.
Yes you will be in MAM’s good books when you have it done and she can get her green fingers in it

Re: The Potters Orchid Railway
Captain Plod just had to lay some track down to get an idea of what is planned.
The far end will continue on behind the back of the shelter awning to a separate steaming bay area to remove congestion in the narrow walkway, but that is a project for next year.
No work will be done this weekend as Plod is off to Gympie to be let loose driving at the Mary Valley Rattler.
