The Woodlock Line

Bitterly cold but quite sunny. At least when it is cold I can control the railway with good views from my patio doors. The cat has been causing mischief too. All in all not a bad running session.

looking really nice
 
Dull and miserable here in Yorkshire! Nice bit of colour in the garden though. So I've just got a couple of smaller trains out after I agreed to help clean the house with other half. Deep joy! DSC_0106.JPGDSC_0103.JPGDSC_0105.JPG
 
Those B&Q cobbles look familiar :)

A couple of things trawling through some of your earlier pics, a line appears to go out of the Gate and in a letter pic trundles down the Drive. Where does it go to?

Telephone Poles, the Bachman ones are a great resource but a little over the Top on a Branch Line, I have modified mine by taking off the top two Cross Woods.
BC76EAEF-D03A-4504-8F24-B94D71E9CACE.jpegI have even removed some of the Pots but that is to refelect what I see on my chosen Prototype in East Germany. Some UK Branch Lines have many more. In a couple of recent Magazines there are all sorts of denominations with even a Cambrian Line one having many more cross poles. So I guess that you pays your money and takes your choice. But an interesting one at Crainlarich in 1961 had 3 cross poles, Top one had 4 pots with the lower 2 having just 2 each. So lots of options to be different if that takes your fancy.

It forms the largest circuit, out the fence, down the drive, and rejoins the main smaller circuit down the drive at the bottom of the garden.

The poles, I don't have many left now, as they faded and went brittle over time. Looks good with less poles and pots though.
