2 Weeks to Go

 Week Commencing 13th February 2023


5 today on a reasonable spring morning. 

Still too cold to paint  , just yet, but the sun will soon be up .

Last week saw the removal of the concrete base , this is all thats left just needs a fair bit of top soil and it will be ready for re seeding . Brian and Pat will hopefully be mowing it by next Autumn !


The Panels by the Station Kitchen entrance catch the weather and were looking a bit faded. Mike gave them a rub down in readiness , for a fresh coat of paint.


Pat tends to do an area with one bit of machinery 


And then move to another area with another bit of kit !


Brian finished cutting his new tops and gave them a severe rubbing down.



Ian was in the sun giving the edge of the lettering a final tidy up. Dave finished off the Waste bins and put them out under the canopy.

The running in board should be ready to go up next week , just in time for the station re opening on the 4th March.

Meanwhile by the afternoon the sun has risen and it has turned into a pleasant afternoon , enough for Mike to give the paneling a fresh coat of Light Stone undercoat.




I'm afraid there wont be a Wednesday edition due to my visit to the Hospital , which is a pity because as I'm writing this I see men in Fluorescent tops heading to the southern end of platform 2 . 

The Tarmacking has started !!

Sure enough , Pat sent this photo of what they were up to on Wednesday.
