Post by: LiskeardRich on August 21, 2011, 12:33:55
Not sure if i'm permitted to post this link here, however i have just come across on youtube a video of an interesting working and thought it may interest some members.

Hmm. Bodmin Parkway looks like a strong contender for the Railway Garden Competition (http://railwayeye.blogspot.com/search/label/2011%20Railway%20Garden%20Competition)...

Edited to add:
...oh, my mistake, it's already been entered.
