Even here in "sunny" Cornwall, it's been damn cold and hailing etc. I reckon it could snow. I'll have to see to a snowplough for the MHLR (but then it wont snow!!!!

).
Who thinks it will? I've heard from Andy it's snowing at his house...

It did a few years ago apparently (when I was still in Zumerzet). All the cars got stuck on Bodmin Moor and no one could get in and out of Cornwall by road!!!

I put together a tough little snow plow today. Once the paint job is done, I'll get some pics. Just hooks on the front of anything, wagons or locos.

I lost all feeling in my hands when refitting a fuel pump and a compressor on a Dennis Dart.

How come when your hands are cold something which wouldn't normally be painful is

Remember hearing about the snow up on Bodmin moor, and I think Dartmoor gets a bit too. I certainly won't get owt, being on the coast.

Doesn't make it feel any warmer though, was out on the bike early this morning, nearly froze!

We're all armoured up for all weathers now! The snowplough is finished (except some wasp stripes) and ready to go on Edrig, Columba, Matilda or any of the larger wagons... Pics..

Made to fit!!

Fixing is simple and very effective...

Serious armour!

Much more fun than making snowmen!
