At the Rocks by Rail Museum today was another day of ballast washing. I seem to spend more time washing ballast at the Museum then washing clothes at home as Mrs. Woody would no doubt highlight. However we had to have a break. The clouds unleashed a deluge of rain forcing me to seek shelter in the workshop.
Although I do walk through the building on a regular basis I never really have had the time for a good look round. That is where the silver lining came in as the cloud now gave me the opportunity whilst sheltering from what was turning into near vertical rain. The whole building has that look of 50 or 60 years ago and that is so well demonstrated by this work bench.
In this day and age of engineering most workshops look more like operating theaters.
There are also a lot of signs which highlight the totally different times railways operated in years ago.
Before I knew it the rain had subsided and it was time to get back to the washing!
