Bodaberg Torvströfabrik near NässjöThe railroad was still operative, and of course they didn't remember a ten year old boy (about 60 kg more of me than last visit)So: nothing to buy!On the way back to the cottage I came across the Hudaryd bogThey were also operative, and of course they didn't want to sell anything either, but the manager recommended the bible:Svenska Industrimotorlok I (my moral guidance since then)The next couple of summer vacations, I (and my girlfriend, under protest!) went to numerous sites,where we, as a rule, met a bog with nothing but insectsAt last I was lucky, and found some "leftovers" near Tingsryd, and some near SkruvThe work getting it all together caused a lack of photo-sessions, so the following pictures are sparse
Källehult Torvströ AB(Turnouts, having to be dug out of the grass)
Gunneboda Torvströfabrik5 kg/m rail in poor shape, one turnout and one curve (we had to carry it 200 meters over the bog)
Söftesmåla Torvindustri ABEverything stacked neatly, ready for the truck (four carriages, turnouts, lots of curves and my first engine)
