On the last PWay Weekend five of the Gang had a pre-booked holiday going round a number of Heritage Railways in South West England.
This left our octogenarian PWay Volunteer Andy McClintock on his lonesome, Georgie soon found him something to do! The result is above, he made such a good job of painting the "BG" that I thought it was the end product, on asking Georgie whether it was a Southern Region Green, she rolled her eyes and said "its only the undercoat" and she will shunt it over to the Station Dock so he can paint the otherside as well....
Just after taking the "BG" photo I spotted in the distance someone purportedly cleaning windows but missing the windows! Transpires it was Robert sugar soaping the woodwork, in preperation for an entire Station repaint at Boat of Garten, soon to be started by the Ellon Squad, if you fancy a bit of painting maybe contact Colin Frost....
Mike reports - Monday 11th June saw the Weedkilling Wagon propelled by the Class 08 shunter over the entire line, plus loops and sidings in very suitable weather. Seen here on approach to our Dulnain Bridge, Martin on wagon who assisted Mike spraying. Georgie who was the Signaller and Steve who was the Driver. Thanks to all.
The bit the train couldn't safely reach yet......
