I have finally got around to uploading photos of this line to my website. http://miniaturerailways.fotopic.net/c1050990.html This 7 1/4" gauge line is actually used during the lavender harvest to bring in the lavender from the fields to the distillery, also to bring in wood for the furnace. The waste material is also taken out by rail. Unfortunately the lavender oil is not taken out in a tank car.... |

I saw this line on your website and I'm ashamed that I haven't visited it considering I'm in the same county
:lol: The man at the centre emailed me aswell to confirm about the steam engine so steam power should be there soon. |
