Man uses lockdown to build 30ft railway in his garden

Lots of us have been trying to take advantage of the UK lockdown to finish off personal projects, but one man from Eastbourne has really gone all out. He's built a 30ft (9.1m) railway in his back garden, complete with a hand-cranked wagon. The retired British Rail worker is now in negotiations with his wife Ruth, in a bid to extend the line by 45ft to the end of the garden.
