Summer Days at Broadway

 Week Commencing 4th August 2025


Monday

Just the 2 of us again .

A quick tidy up of what was left of the unburnt , its now back to the height it was before !



Nobody around on the platform so a mow and weed.


Kevin got in the swing of things and carried on beyond the barrier.


One of the station masters arrived to tell us when they tried the lights one evening they didn't work and they kept tripping the MCB . By a method of switching the Circuits off and on  one by one . we found it was the northern set of lights.


Only 6 lights to test one by one, by luck it was the last one showing a short when tested. some LED bulbs when they die go to a short and pop the MCB.

Wednesday

First thing , change the LED bulb , its not the only one !




We noticed the electrical box on platform 1 had a slight list , the ground behind had dried out and the uprights holding the box had become loose.



The front has now a large wooden leg on the front and the back wedged with  a large slice of slab , Kevin feels confident to put the door back on.


Locomotives on duty today were the class 20 and Foremarke Hall
