 Drilling in the workshop |
 Cutting the rail to length |
 15'lengths are fun to handle - a power hacksaw is very useful! |
 The track building jig |
 With sleepers and one rail |
 Both rails, just needs screwing up |
 Are you sure there's a railway here? (Not tigers or lions!) |
 I'm sure that there is a track-bed here somewhere! |
 Hornby track was never that difficult! |
 The wilderness! |
 Turf removed and track laid from High Hole to the station area |
 A view from where the tips of the points will be |
 Points in position |
 A view from inside High Hole |
 Another view from High Hole to the station |
 Buffers - any similarity in design between these and Peco sleeper built is purely coincidental! |
 Station siding in place |
 Points past High Hole for the storage siding |
 A CKD station (Completely Knocked Down!) |
 So part "A" attaches to part "H" with screws "J"! |
 I'm off to get a hammer! |
 The platform complete |
 The base for the booking office |
 Together! |
 The old buffers (now painted in old fashioned creosote!) |
 The mandatory Fixed Red Light |
 A pair of old buffers |
 The completed station |
 Getting things ready for the great day! |
 Fred did a wonderful job putting wire netting over the platform surface |
 Robert in charge of the barrow! |
 (Notice it's empty! - well apart from the shovel) |
