RMweb Gold jcarta Posted April 11, 2020 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) Well now the sun has finally shown its face so I will find something else to do in the lock down situation.... Already cleaned the windows, mowed the lawns so a little me time I thinks...... Well 25307 has arrived for a splash & dash, an unusual visitor to the area, must have come in on an overnight freight.... I see the depot is having a delivery by the view of the old Bedford CA van in the background, maybe it could be the boss coming in on a Saturday??????

RMweb Gold jcarta Posted April 12, 2020 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) The Boss man did turn up yesterday hiding around the back of the depot, still don't know what he's looking for though.... And the S&T are out & about checking over their assets. Edited April 1, 2022 by jcarta 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Jim I am ok now family ok enjoying the time off and getting paid start doing some models in the next few days I been putting it off for months decorated the model room did not realise how much crap was dumped in there no skip available so dump it over the sea wall, ha.ha (joke) It feels weird down here no tourists but nice and peaceful. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold jcarta Posted April 13, 2020 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 13, 2020 Steve That's good news and relief for you and the family...... Good news that you are getting back into your modelling, looking forward to a the updates when they come along. As for decorating good luck on that one but I have to agree with you the amount of rubbish we tend to hoard is unbelievable and always thinking that we will use it one day.... It may feel weird at the moment with no tourists but hopefully that will change in a few weeks time and the world will get back to some normality Jim 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold jcarta Posted April 14, 2020 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 14, 2020 Well, the boss man is still loitering obviously casting a good eye over staff that are wandering around the depot.....He hasn't moved from the end of the depot....

RMweb Gold jcarta Posted April 15, 2020 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) Well back out in the garden as the weather is heating up once again. So to start with D0280 Falcon is on a proving run in readiness for a mainline certification so over the summer months it will be used on some rail enthusiast specials. Next up is 45144 Royal Signals on van traffic back to Ayr Road Sidings so it will give Sid the shunter something to do providing he's finished his rather large mug of tea.

RMweb Gold jcarta Posted April 15, 2020 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) This morning whist having a day off from work in lock down land (where I seem to spend more time on RMWeb) was spent flitting in between the garden and the garage. 47711 Greyfriars Bobby is waiting for the road from the sidings at Ayr Road to the loop. In the garage 40099 is on shed and is polluting the atmosphere by starting up, nothing like a bit of clag ..... never harmed anyone Edited April 1, 2022 by jcarta 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
