The start of a new running season just brings home how much work is required in maintaining a heritage railway with just volunteers, a small country station is just one small cog in a railway and that provides enough work on its own! This week we focused on cleaning up again tackling the rear of the station building, hanging up pictures of the old clay mine in the exhibition room and fitting a wall bench towards the Lamp hut end of the platform.
Oh and do you know when something is really bugging you well the east embankment overgrowth is one of them! Due to the construction of the 2nd platform, very little work has been done on keeping on top of the plant life, but this week that tiny little bug just got to much so we have made a start on tidying it up, working away from the bridge.
