More storm damage !

 Week commencing 26th January 2026


Monday

5 around today , weather not okay a bit of a storm brewing  .
Kevin has well and truly moved into old mess hut , old fridge is now a storage cupboard.


Out of the wind and rain Chris in the warmth of the ladies toilet gave one of the waste bins a fresh coat of paint.


Over on platform 2 the team had made a concrete block to support one of the canopy stanchions .

Edges were put on one of the bins.


Chris and Ian fitted some draft excluders on the shed.


Signs of life in one of the pots , could be snowdrops, daffodils or tulips ?


Wednesday

Day after the storm that went through on Tuesday, the southern end of platform 1 , 2 large branches had come down , that make 4 that have come down in the past couple of months.


Smashed another lamp !



Bits all over the place !


We spent most of the morning clearing up , sweep up the glass and chop up the trees. and take them down to the bonfire area .


This was interesting a broken branch stuck in the ground not far from the platform edge .


Chris was back in the shed on the final part of the insulation fitting to the corner wall. 


Mark and young Dave carried on cleaning up the track bed .


Kevin put a small fence up to try and stop people standing on the bank, to take photos.


An attempt was made to straighten out the top of the lamp which got hit . 



At little Broadway the Auto Train arrives with the afternoon train to Honeybourne.
