Sparks fly as the monthly PLPR Test Train crosses over a bridge between two third-rail sections.

This took what was already one of TSW's best routes and made it even better.

It was challenging, but not too challenging, which is the best way to describe a puzzle like this one.

This is one of those puzzles that has a lot of bits that don't go where you expect them to go, but that didn't take away from how enjoyable this one was to do, thanks to the distinctive pieces and the highly fun, enjoyable & interesting image.

Plus, we still got some great views out of it, even if it was very windy and cold up at the top.

Even if the weather wasn't the best, it was still nice to come back and walk around edge, which we did in reverse this time.

A couple images from a morning walk around Maiden Castle on a very overcast day (but still better than the rain we've had lately).

Both of these videos are a little tease to a much bigger Train Sim World project that I have in the pipeline.

More from this will be coming very soon.

As for the puzzle, it got trickier as it went along, especially with the buildings at the end, but this was still a enjoyable one to do thanks to the fairly distinctive pieces and great quality image.

Now if only we could have a vista like that on the model railway. That would be nice, right?

When I saw this puzzle, I knew that this one was a must do. Not only have I been to this place in real-life, but it's also what inspired the model railway that's in my bedroom (based on the planned, but never built branch line between here and Kingsbridge).

It's a pretty good matching set, especially with the new brake corridor coach.

The specific loco that I saw, 37254 'Cardiff Canton', was built in 1965 (so just over 60 years old) and spent some time in preservation at the Spa Valley Railway, before being acquired by Colas Rail in 2015 and going by yesterday, it's still going strong to this day.
