Garden trains again...

I made a resolution this year to run the EJ&KLR more this summer so today I took the opportunity to play trains with Alex who adored the railway again.

Last trains of the weekend...

More trains today...

Well it's raining now but this morning has been glorious so we ran plenty of trains. The U-class and Frank S saw action on the passenger train - as did the Polish Lyd2 (Faur L45H) diesel on both freight and later passenger...

Summer's here...

I can't believe how the railway has really evolved in the past few years - it's a shame it isn't run more often, but when it is, it always delights...

Today we were visiting Blists Hill at Telford, but we got to Chester in time to play trains in the evening. Elly and I cleaned the track and pruned some trees with Mum before Elly had a fun hour playing and shunting with her Stainz and a passenger train. I didn't get to run my Frank S tank, but hopefully with another good day forecast tomorrow we'll have a bit of a running session as well as nipping out for a cake to Llangollen Railway...
