How to Build a Railway – A New Turning Loop at Peter’s Railway

Christopher Vine’s series of 20 books tell the story of Peter and Grandpa building and operating a railway across their farm. The Peter’s Railway bookshop is here: “Combining real engineering with adventures and true stories, these books feed inquisitive young minds!” In this video Chris Vine is building a Turning Loop (Balloon Loop) at the far end of the line. This means that trains can run continuously... Bongo (or Fiery Fox in the books) is the miniature steam locomotive, made by Chris Vine, Author of the Peter’s Railway series of books.
