Well yet again I have heard comments that the railway is quiet at the moment until the Santa trains start at the end of November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How wrong a statement that is!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let us take the coming week shall we.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Saturday starts with a steam driver experience day with 92 Squadron, an event that never ceases to be popular. There is still a big appeal in driving a steam locomotive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sunday brings us a running day with the Swedish Railcar, doing four runs each way. The railcar is popular with visitors, if only perhaps because of it being so unusual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Monday to Friday brings something a little different. The crossing gates at Wansford are due to be replaced, and the new gates have been constructed in-house by some very skilled members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thursday brings us a private charter up the line,.Charters like this are popular with people who for a variety of reasons want their own train.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This brings us back to Saturday and another four each way railcar service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So there you have it a week in the life of the railway heading towards Winter. So much for not a lot happening!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
