March 2023 - Update

 The warmer weather is on its way, and soon, it will be time to get out in the garden.  For me a patio to relay prior to my railway extension, but more of this when work begins.  My Bachmann Railtruck is now complete, and a test drive was completed and it is running well, and now I am in the process of converting a Bachmann Baldwin 2-4-2 Americanized "Lyn" ( part # 91199) to battery remote control, and removing the Americanized items, this  the item as bought:

  
To follow my progress the blog on the conversion is Bachmann Baldwin-2-4-2 Lyn

January 2023 Update

 A lot has happened in my life since the last update, though very little has any thing to do with the Garden Railway, hence the first update in four months.

I did have an aviary (or two) birds have gone, however this allowed for the conversion of one of the aviaries to the "Waiting Room":

 
This allows for the storage of my locos and other rolling stock.
 
My indoor work space was transformed, with a new workbench made from a solid beech worktop, and again storage was rationalised:


Finally I have finished the Bachmann RailTruck conversion as mentioned in my last update and can be found in my blog at Bachmann Railtruck.

Hopefully my next update will not be spread so far apart 😊.
