Only one Month to go !

 Week commencing 26th February 2024


With only a month to go before trains get back to Broadway  ( Good Friday ) most of  the closed season jobs have nearly been completed .

Work on platform 2 is going on with the Monday shot showing 1 upright erected and block work ongoing.



Monday


Mike and Peter were persevering  with the rubbing down of the spear fencing.


Down at the bottom of the drive Brian , Dave and Ian finally got the posts concreted into the ground.


Not an easy job getting down to those bottom bits !


Then they started on applying wood preserve to the wooden fencing. 


Late February and the mower is out .


Wednesday


Rain threatened and just the 5 of us , but over on platform 2 a small gang appeared and quite a lot got done , below the start of the day , all 6 upright's were up and block work up to damp course at the far end had been completed. 


Vic was in today working on the small garden.


More signs of animal activity around the station.


Brian and Dave applied more wood preservative this time starting from the top. of the drive . in the distance it was Mike and Ian on the fence today.


The hover was out with Pat , its good for cutting up the grass cut on Monday.


Brian half way down the drive , still a long way to go !
