Week Commencing 13th July 2026
Both volunteering days started off the same coolish mornings and hot afternoons ! so it was a case of do the hard stuff first thing and relaxing jobs in the afternoon.
Monday
Myself , Ian and Mark .
Top of the bank for me
Bottom of the bank and the drive way for Mark .
And the Fuel store Roof for Ian.
Wednesday
Myself , Ian and Kevin.
The signs needed taking down to gain access to the other side of the fuel shed roof .
Roof done now the sides in the future coming months ?
My effort was the back of platform 2 before the sun got going .
" steamers " on today Betton Grange and 3850.
We are hopping to show our Model railway of Broadway station circa 1940 ish ( Little Broadway ) at the model railway show in September , there has been a few mods to it since we acquired it , one is the fitting of a back scene .
I know its not exactly correct but I think it looks okay.
Ps why does the camera decide to stop working on the day after we were there !!
I will be back on Monday to sort . Have patience
Dave

DeleteMaybe - just maybe - if the signal box is EVER commissioned, it might be possible to get rid of that STOP sign by the shed?
ReplyDeleteWe heard on another blog that the box is due for commissioning in November. Cross fingers.
DeleteI think the back scene really makes the model. Really gives it depth. Well done. BTW, do you have a 'fiddle yard' for it? Who created it in the first place? It looks great. Could be useful for signalman training!
