Route Map

The map of the line is evolving as the line is built. September 2005 saw completion of the deviation - a new loop around a new pond. The cause of this was nothing to do with the railway, but because the fish had outgrown the puddle they were living in.

2006/7 Has seen the removal of Woody Beach and the majority of the high level section. This was necessary due to a restructure of the garden and removal of the old garage. The track at the high level behind the church has been rerouted along the top of the rockery, part cutting, part embankment, to come around parallel to the old incline.

The incline up to Woody Beach is now removed, as the high level section no longer exists. Instead, there is a short climb from behind the church to the summit above the Rocky Pass, then the line falls over an arch bridge towards the station. Meanwhile from the Quarry Halt, the line climbs as before only much less severely, meeting the falling grade from the summit at the station throat where there is a crossover and the entrance to the sidings.

The circuit is once more complete with a return loop, offering a full run of just under one scale mile.
