    No I do not currently volunteer
    But what would you have? A Hunslet industrial with a train of NCB hoppers might be a bit OTT.

    Go to the Czech republic with a bit of loose change in your back pocket and you can buy yourself a brand new O&K steam loco ....

    It reminds me of the oil well fortress in the second Mad Max film - where they have a bus operating as a gate.

    If the use of three tubs shown represents "a waste", what alternatives do you propose?

    They need to be taken to a heritage railway, where they can sit out front gradually rusting away. After ten years, then they can be scrapped. ;)

    Let's debate this silly comment for 3 pages instead of just enjoying a little video about a whimsical garden gate and someone's negative opinion of said gate.

    I'd be quite happy to have a garden big enough to warrant a gate like that!
