Roman1 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Very nice pictures Dave, as you probably remember some of the shots of Trains in Wapping Sidings are no longer possible., due to the trees! I only hear the locos doing a brake test as an indication something is there. Sometime last week the 'De Forest' gang cut back some of bushes from the end of platform 4 towards the Box. Also the S&Cs have now got those permanent lights installed. Cheers Andy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
