Weston Touches

The team has been continuing to tick off the jobs as we move closer to the opening of the Weston extension.

Andy G was on hand with his camera to catch some of the latest goings on 

First we catch Dave R preparing the embankment for grass seeding with four volunteers watching and reminding him to keep the seeds in line. We do want to make a good impression on our customers.

Ian and Noel prepare the Mermaid wagon for the party by giving her a brush up.

John wisely moves to a safe distance whilst the wagon gets a clean.

The walkway from platform to the services was moved into position. This enables direct access from the platform to the toilets, very handy for young and old.

Here is the walkway in its final position. This can be moved out of the way when access is required to the inside of the goods shed.

There is still plenty of work to go but we are getting closer to opening. Thanks to all for the hard work and to Andy G for the photos.

Until next time.

Oswestry Station

As we prepare to open again for the public it's the vegetation clearance team have been busy through the platform roads at Oswestry. Colin took a few pictures to show the progress.

We start looking along the platform road, the vegetation has been cleared and various items useful (and not!) we're found along the line 

The centre road has has a good clean up snd the down platform base hashad a haircut.

The bags of vegetation were later collected for disposal.

And in the area still to be tackled we can see som buried treasure!

Many thanks to all of the team and to Colin for the pictures.

Until next time.
