Digging out the Series 1
So..... After promising to get this back on the road for the last few years I have finally moved it into position ready for recommissioning Thumbs Up

He has been with us for 24 years and is called Lionel.

Plans are to get it into a road worthy state over the winter, run it next summer then strip and rebuild into a nice usable example.

Here are a couple of photos as it sits right now.

I'll update as I go.
