Can a cheap £62 replacement engine get our inherited rotavator running again, or did we hit a major roadblock?
Join us at Loddiswell Station for Episode 5 as we tackle DIY machinery repairs, uncover acrobatic foxes on our trail camera, and start reclaiming the signal box garden!
Loddiswell Station is a former GWR station on the Kingsbridge branch (the Primrose Line) in South Devon, opened in 1893. We’re slowly trying to restore the buildings and land while sharing the journey.
