Neil Wood's 15" Gauge Railway (Onerahi 1988)

Further to a recent post, some photo's sent in by Darryl Palmer (whom spent a bit of time helping, in fact took these photos).

I would've been 6 years old when these photo's were taken, the more I look at the pics the more I remember..

The loco had a Hillman engine and outboard motor gearbox.

Lower Property Neil and kids, can't see the track but its there! Neil built a functional weed spraying wagon to tackle that issue a year or so later as I remember.

Just left lower property & climbing up left of the garage where it crosses the drive and meets the platform.

A very early shot of Neil & Ronald with kids heading towards loco. Note the track had a turnout & short line running into the shed on the left.

 Remember this dad? Railways Social Club trip at Okaihai Jan 1986, LE Ronald Bryant in cab.
