RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted March 30, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 30, 2019 The last weekend... Just need to stick the doors on, make a couple of signs and then glue the garages to their bases with some grass. And then take the required photos.

RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted March 31, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 31, 2019 Entry photos & text. Bill has been waiting for a train at the country crossing for all his life. As a young lad, he waited for the loco to check the number. It was always one of the same three, but he didn’t mind. He noted it down in his book just the same. He’d wave to the driver and they’d blow the whistle. As a young man, Bill would wait for the train to bring his sweetheart. Every weekend she’d make the journey along the line to the little halt. Bill would wait with his Mini Cooper, which he loved almost as much as Bet. The old wall had been replaced by a new garage, hoping the planned increase in passengers would bring more business. As an older man, Bill would wait for the train. Not for anything special, just nostalgia, remembering the days of train spotting and waiting for the love of his life. He still had the Mini, still lovingly cared for, looking as good as it did the day he bought it. The garage, though, had seen better days. Now closed and neglected, it wouldn’t be long before demolition. 8 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkshire Square Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Very nice. Not sure that Mini would be so pristine so many years later, though! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted April 8, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 8, 2019 He looked after it very well... regular wash & polish, using TurtleWax and elbow grease. 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
