Chilly start to 2025

Friday 10th January saw Georgie & John Wood shunting PWay materials from Boat of Garten to Broomhill  

after much clearing of snow from switches etc John's photo.

--------------------.

Saturday 11th didn't see the planned start of work at Broomhill for obvious reasons. On our arrival at Boat of Garten it was minus 16.5 Celsius! Loco needed a wee jump start and plan B eventually swung into operation -

retrieving all the broken fenceposts, old fencing wire and ryelock that Fergus (top right) our fencing contractor had neatly piled up after doing a lot of fence renewals 

between Boat of Garten and the Dulnain bridge, of course we had to push the previous days positioned vehicles onto the extension with us, after freeing the frozen brake blocks!

On the way back Georgie had us clearing vegetation around level crossings and bridges.  Ian's two thin photos. 

Thanks to Mike, Ian, Andrew, Fergus and Georgie.
