Railway fun isn't just limited to adventures during the hot summer months. There's always something to be done on the railway whatever the time of year. During the winter there are running repairs to be done and time for construction projects in the workshop. The children have lots of fun creating their SPLAT machine to help paint all the sleepers, while in the Spring as the days getting slightly longer and it's time for spring cleaning at the station and fixing up the track. As summer arrives more time is spent on the railway which they use to raise money for charity with a non stop train ride! Then in Autumn, pumpkins adorn the railway with a scary vision appearing during the spooky ghost train party - thanks to another of Peter's inventions!

About the Author
Since a very small boy, Chris has always loved everything mechanical, especially steam engines. The first workshop was in his bedroom where he made an electric go-kart aged 8, followed by a mini-bike powered by the engine from a petrol lawn mower. He spent many holidays on a friend's farm where there was a miniature railway across a field and so started a love of making model steam locomotives. The latest is Bongo, 8 feet long and the inspiration for Fiery Fox in the books. Chris wanted to share his love and knowledge of railways and engineering: Peter's Railway is the result.
