Mainline extension June 8th

Volunteers extending our mainline at Maymorn

Our mainline at Maymorn was extended a further two tracksets on Saturday 8 June, now just 10m shy of the pedestrian crossing gates.

We're keen to shift the rake of Yc ballast wagons along - to give a little more running track length ahead of our official commissioning of shunt loco Tr189 on 22 June.

Looking towards the pedestrian crossing - we're closing the gap!
