Just realised I put the pantographs on the wrong way round :-[ I already got it all out again to take some pics and then packed it away and realised that I had forgotten them completely so I had to get it all out a third time to take these which I still got wrong ::)

Not to worry, Damo!

Since there are no overhead catenary wires on this section of your railroad, they're running on diesel ...  ;)

Yes - diesel ;)

Do I need to construct some overhead catenary wires now? ;D

You have a great talent both for a good story but also excellent photos to tell it.  I really like the detail you include, often small points such as the metal sections to help spread the load of the crane outriggers.  (I do, however, have some reservations about health and safety issues in the trimming of the overhanging branches!)  Truly an excellent presentation, Damo.   :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

It's a great collection you have, too.  The scaffolding planks look interesting - I guess very early Playmobil.  Am I right?

And I know just how you feel about finding a problem with a photo after you've packed everything away!   ;D

You are correct Gordon, they are very old



There is a great Playmospace picture using this scaffolding and I would be grateful if anyone can find it :)

Seems like your digger operator couldn't make it to the loo flatcat  :o! You may want to relocate one of those port a loo's closer to the far out workers just in case a number 2 situation hits  :toot:!
