AMJ Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Sunday 18th April, marks the end of the boiler certificate on Slough Estates No3 which has served our railway so well for the past decade. As we cannot open to the public but are still required to carry out crew training, we have decided to run some demonstration freight trains to say farewell to the loco and showcase our newly overhauled wagons. The planned departures are at 12.00, 13.00, 14.00 and 15.00 to Park Halt and return. If you would like to come and take some photos of the passing trains then you are welcome but please note our site will NOT be open and the trains will not be carrying members of the public. Good spots for lineside photography on a bright spring day are plentiful but remember to maintain social distancing, your own personal safety and never walk on the tracks. We look forward to seeing some of you out and about on Sunday for our farewell to Slough 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

locomad2 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Don't think I've ever thrown cotton waste away, used for rags, cloths, cleaning then burnt, plus stripped into long strips to make mope heads etc. Large items like old sheets turned dust covers while decorating, car screen frost protection or used in garden as weed suppressers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
