A 009 narrow gauge model railway of Rhyd Ddu. The project was born in late 2005. This blog describes the planning, woodwork, track laying, wiring, DCC, scenery, locomotive and rolling stock. The layout is an impression of the Welsh Highland Railway (WHR) Rhyd Ddu station and Tro Ffridd reverse curves. 009 is 4mm scale (OO) narrow gauge using N gauge track.

And the survey said....
The above is a small screenshot from some wonderfully useful survey data that was compiled for phase 3 of the WHR reconstruction. This was sent to me by the wonderful J.C. Sreeves (him of WHR bridges fame!). These will be really useful particularly for scenery dimensions of outcrops etc.).
Other progress has included endless drilling of tiny holes through every 4th sleeper in preparation for a massive tracklaying session coming soon...as well as the final cork laying on board 2 (the loop point) and some general tidying up.
Tomorrow looks like it could be a day of gardening and some modelling (if I get the lawn mown in a sensible time frame) so we might get some more track laid.
