Like Being at the Seaside

 Monday 12th September 2022


Last week we had seen the slabs around the station building cleaned with a steam pressure washer , the problem with that it tends to blow all the sand from out the cracks in-between the slabs. 

So as weather for the day was forecast to be dry and warm , it was decided to refill the gaps.


Dry Kiln Sand is what you need , Dave filled the deep holes , whilst Peter and Ron brushed the sand into the shallow cracks.


Brian joined us .

The view from the camera , the world watching us at work.

 

Half way done !

Afterwards Ron , Mike and Brian headed to the end of Platform 1


Ron did a bit of clearing up.


Mike gave the new gate a lick of paint.


Brian gave the top of the bank a raking of old and dead vegetation.


Mike later still headed onto platform 2 to do a bit of white edging.

Elsewhere Peter was making handles for the Truggs and Dave was working on Barrier number 2.

  1. Thank you for keeping the station in such tip-top condition. I notice that the last 2 blogs are labelled August instead of September (was this you wanting the Summer to carry on?)
