Part One

Of Two.

A morning start at Pendre yard, cleaning carriages before a guarding turn.  This shot of the first train taken from the carriage shed doors.  There has been a critical shortage of volunteer guards this week.  Having been away a few days there was little I could do to help until today.  The catch was that I also had an evening shift in the cafe.  Fortunately there was a three hour gap in between and I managed a snooze at home as well as getting a few little jobs done.

The train trip was great as the weather was nice and I had a very capable assistant.   The cafe turn was a busy one, a charity train and barbecue food.  A full train of 125 people.  Live music in the cafe too made for a very jolly evening.

Tired now.  Will sleep well.
