I built a trestle tramway for the ore taking it from the ore bin on the mine to a projected tipple on the cliffside which will deliver it to rail wagons underneath. I managed to make a false start by building it too high so had to dismantle all the trestles, shorten them and re-assemble.
The next step will be adding an 18 inch tram line but I need to buy the bits for that. I can add some sway braces to the trestles too.
