No Trains Today - or are there?

What a surprise when I got up this morning to see my garden covered with snow and the pond frozen solid with a covering of snow.

 

Thick snow on the tracks all services cancelled until further notice.

 

 

Imagine my surprise when I came down this morning to see the garden, track and pond blanketed snow. 

 

This first photograph is take from inside while the snow was still falling. 

 

 A picturesque view across the bridge, but where is the track.

Snowy is a one off loco, the body was originally a Bachmann Porter Loco with modifications mounted on an LGB 20040 Snowplow with the rear plow removed. . 

 

  Getting on with the task of clearing the line of snow and ice. 

 

 Making progress.

 

 Job done and running again.  Not bad for a BSA loco (Bits stuck anywhere)
