New 5” track added inside the original 7 1/4” track into the sidings at the station.
All ready for the October Steaming Weekend.
All work done by the "A" Team, George, Jim, Neil & Mick, with help from a few others. October 2007.
5” gauge track added to the original siding loop and a new siding loop added on the inside.
Another view looking towards the exit end of the loops
Looking back through the station, the 5” line needs extending to the exit point and onwards around the whole track. The inner loop is made up of oddments of track from Hady. We reuse their castoff's.
Many points to keep the loco drivers on their toes !!
How to modify a 7 1/4” gauge points to allow 5” traffic to pass into the loops. Just make sure you have set the points before you progress or you come to a sticky end !! (Think about it !!)
