Snow clearance!

Posted on 31 December 2020

The white stuff fell last night and by this morning it had frozen. The snow plough had already been fitted to the little track cleaning engine in anticipation. A gallant effort was made, but up at the top station the snow was – well not very deep, but very crisp and even – and hard! With wheels slipping it was too much for this engine to cope with and so the big diesel, Sir Christopher Wren, needs to be brought out to help – but after breakfast!

    Rushing out into the snow before breakfast… wonderful! Alas we haven’t had any here yet, my young railway has only had a smattering in its lifetime so hoping we do get some.

    Look forward to seeing Sir Christopher Wren take it on!

    So nice to see scale like snow. It would be much better with the plough if it was soft I guess. Ideas for a steam rotary plough like on the RhB ??
