Garden line in Continental Modeller...

I was very excited to receive my copy of the August 2013 Continental modeller. My article about the EJ&KLR features over 8 pages with some lovely, although quite dated now, photos of te railway. Well worth getting a copy as it's a good issue as well... I get my own copy electronically on the iPad and the Exact Editions app and e-sub.

Kof in service...

The EJ&KLR management wasted no time in getting VL2 out in service. Despite being the lines oldest diesel she was pressed into a late evening service with a solitary roll-wagen load.

New delivery to the EJ&KLR...

The OBB delivered the recently refurbished EJ&KLR no. 2 to Alisendorf for unloading. The shunter was loaded on a flat wagon for transport due to it's low maximum speed, which would have been an obstruction out on the mainline...

Two axle coach transfers...

This evening I managed to get the custom EJ&KLR transfers applied to my pair of LGB 2 axle coaches. These will be sealed with satin varnish but I couldn't help mocking them up to see what they would look like assembled.
