The title is a bit of a misnomer as I completed the first stage of the extension last week but its never too late for an update right?
When I was first Surveying places to build the railway I knew I'd have my work cut out for me no matter where I put it but due to ease of access ended up putting it in my front garden bed which has been a good fit but has made it extremely hard to expand onward due to the steep slope needed to descend the garden. After a lot of surveying I decided the only way was to cross over into an adjacent patch of grass and spiral my way down on a 1:30 which I hoped wasn't too severe for my stock.
This is the "master plan" how much of it is actually constructed is yet to be seen. At this stage track will progress to badger creek as "stage one"
The site before work
Site of future wye and mine interchange
The track gang has arrived and removed a section of track ready for the interchange point very kindly made for me by melbournesparks. Thanks again mate!
The point laid in, time for a beer!
Little did I know that this is how things would stay for the next almost 12 months. Progress is as usual Glacial.
