Just the two of us !

 Week Commencing 21st July 2025

Monday

Just Kevin and myself today , looks like Ian's knee problems are going to put him out of action for a few more months now .

First a trip to Toddington to make sure all trains have sufficient gas on board for this weekends Diesel Gala .

Back at Broadway we cleaned up the bottom garden .

Wednesday

An area we hadn't had a go at yet was the northern end of platform 1 .

Below is a picture of what it had become , plenty of bramble , a few ash trees and some wild flowers .

Last week i made a start clearing a path behind the slab storage area .

My first uphill sweep takes about 1/2 hr to clear an area like this .

Kevin started nearer the station side where the brambles and ash weren't as thick on the ground

But still thick enough .

By the late afternoon the area we wanted to finish was nearly done , just left some areas of wild flowers that the butterfly's seamed to love

Locos around today were 3850 and Class 37 6948 which will be out this weekend on the Diesel Gala

Just a PS 

We are getting short of items we sell in our Goods shed , so if you could donate items suitable ,IE  puzzles , books and Bric a brac etc . It is for a good cause 

Thank you

Dave
