I like that photo. It's like the miniature railway is just dreaming away the Autumn days as it waits for things to get back to normal. (Aren't we all?!).
Clang . The signal's gone up ! Black chevron wobbling in the air .
The sudden excitement .
' What's coming you think . Steam or Yellow belly ?
' Go out on the track and have a look . Put your ear to the iron like Tonto '.
Unbelievable now , but that's what we did as kids trainspotting on the main line at Standish . In the last days of steam you still got a Casey Jones style wave from the driver , but mostly it was the numbers of the big yellow fronted diesels we copied into our note books .
Ah , just dreaming away on those sleepers .
Mick, Its closed because we are in lockdown??
Thanks for that Edna
Great photograph.
We've walked up this track, when the train was not running.When the children were toddler's. Pretending they were the choo choo ! !!!!! happy day's.
Thanks folks :)
