Erm they ended up double heading by "Miffy" (the sl3) deciding it was going to stick at the top of the hill so Cale gave him a helping shove.

The Railway is a friends. the sm32 runs round the garden. I think its about the same length as what ive got. Then hes got an O guage that runs through his garden shed and around the other half of the garden.

Thanks for all the nice coments
