  • Keith was staying down here so we made the most of a rare dry day to get the railway running.

    I'm pleased to see that mugs of tea are still uniform issue for railway staff and enthusiasts alike.

    Extremely relaxing as usual, Ian. Autumn in SW Wales seems have arrived slightly earlier than here in NW London.
    It's lovely to see Keith 'Wakeman' behaving himself and keeping his centre of mass firmly over the rails. Does he even play keyboards?
    I see BYR-Y-BACH is still unoccupied and, therefore, my final offer will be in the region of 25p per week. Obviously, I'll bring my own sleeping bag and Primus stove. Take it or leave it.
    Sorry to hear about the grief on the socials. It's a fine line between publicising your work and , well, attracting the ne'er-do-wells.
    Keep 'em coming ... 👍

      @@DaveFiggley Thanks Dave! I think the bad person wasn't even aware of my line. He just found the old ad for the Scamp I purchased and copied it. Keith doesn't play keys and is a fine driver really! The facilities at Byr y Bach are still substandard I'm afraid. You would get a nasty chill.

    How about a leaf blower? Have you started on a snow plow for winter? The ambient temperature has finally dropped below 100 degrees here in the Arizona USA desert. We can start outdoor train running again. Cheers.

    Now if I turned up at the Halt and flagged you down would you stop? On the other hand if I turned up at the Halt how long would I have to wait? Four minutes here sounds more like a bus driver.

    Do you get traction issues due to leaf fall ?

      Doesn't make much difference surprisingly. I know from experience the difference it makes on the big railway!
