They`re Back !

Week Commencing 14th October 2024


Monday 

Just the four of us , and we were amazed to see the station clocks were back , it must have hapened last Friday when the station was on a none running day . Anyway its nice to see them back and working.



One of our on going jobs was to fix our neighbours post , which had been hit and broken by either the dustbin waon or a coach ! a replaceement post had been sourced and the old one dug out and replaced.


Around the damp station worked continued !


Pat and Ron on his last day  ( before returning home to Hong Kong ) took to the track bed and platform 2 clearing away the pine needles !




Wednesday


A gloomy wet day , saw just Ian and Myself pottering around the station.
Over on platform 2 some more Plynth headers at the front had been laid and a few reds had appeared on the far end .


Scaffolding had returned first thing on Wednesday ! The hour hand on the one side was out of alignment ! All got sorted before the station opened.


Having a sort out in the mess hut revealed an old photograph of the station drive way from back in the day , it looked much nicer and had that country station feel ! Shame it had to change.


Locomotives around today were "3850 " and the DMU.
