Hello all,
Apologies for the lack of updates, behind the scenes there has been plenty going on!!
Our new building is our current top priority, the main steel structure has been ordered and is currently being fabricated in Wales. The foundations are all dug out now, with the hardcore arriving next week, the next stage after this is the Concreting, then finally the steel erecting.
If you have driven past recently, you'll notice we have chopped down the trees at the front of the property, this was a key job as the trees had grown out of control, and it allows access for materials needed to build the shed. Once all works are complete we plan to plant a nice laurel bush and build a platform.
We have taken delivery of a new driving wagon for our new locomotive "Moston", a few bits to do to this and it will be a fantastic addition.
"Afon Glaslyn" is currently at sheffield, having some winter maintenance and TLC, she will be ready for the running season.
We are also busy designing and building bogies to go under our newly acquired roofed carriages. Thanks to Abbeydale Miniature Railway for the coach bodies, and special thanks to Ben Harris and Ian Hutchinson for their hard work designing and constructing the bogies.
More to come soon, so keep your eyes peeled!!!
