Contract work being undertaken for the Warbler Manor Light Railway!
The shot was taken at the weekend and shows a rebuild/conversion of the B&SE battery loco to diesel.

A slight variation on a theme, not too sure whether this would be battery, overhead or what?

It look's like a overhead loco to me, with that amazing cab!

A shot from the works, this time showing a very early example of one of Mr Bodgit’s narrow gauge steam locomotive designs. Note the narrow waisted firebox as seen on the Talyllyn engines.

Andrew,

Can't wait for these to be ready, they'll look nice in blue with fancy linning :lol:
The steam loco, even though it's early shots, looks superb already.

The steam loco is evolving bit by bit. I want it to look as if it were built about 1870, what do you guys think?

A little something from the workshop floor.
This is a 3d model of the first scratch built 009 loco, built by myself when very young!
