Woke up this morning to snow, in Blackpool!! I bought my plow over 2 years ago & I finally got to use it. There was ice on the rails as well so I had to give it the odd shove now & then.

and then it was all gone

Kim:
Does your wife know you raided the flour pantry? (just kidding) Nice pix, Thanks for sharing. Haven't seen any of that around here for a long time. Been rather cool around here too, got down to 58 (F) last night, had to put a log in the old fireplace!

ttrigg, it was Gail who kicked me out of bed. She got up to make a brew and then shouted, 'THERE'S SNOW ON THE RAILWAY'. I was dressed in 30 seconds and out there!

Hi Kim
Read the instructions I don't see a house brick in the plow[swg]
I have got one but the intension is to use it for clearing the line of leaves ect
and hopefully without hurting them the odd geko or two.
Not likely to see snow in my part of the world.
regards John

Cool pics! I hope we can get some snow here someday, last time we had a huge storm about 3 years ago.

Kim,
Nice pics, and a sweet looking layout you have there too.
John,
With all the lizards we have here, and the rocky terrain I'm constructing being such a perfect habitat for them, I ought to call my layout "Dinosaur Mountain". :)
