By the end of 2000, the rail line consisted
of about 150 feet of mainline track laid mostly in ballast. It extended
down the south side of our backyard and partway across the
back to the west. The Kalum Yard had a mainline
and two passing tracks.
Year-end also brought snow. The Aristocraft Plow proved it could handle not only leaves
(above) but also the snow it was designed for. It worked even better when a four
pound brick was added as ballast and the front coupler mount
on the FA1 was reinforced with a metal bracket securely
hot-glued in place.
