After missing going to the Rocks by Rail Museum for two weeks following Covid and then the sickly cats saga (they are all recovering) I managed to get there today. It was my last day being there whilst the Museum is open to the public. It closes after the last event on Sunday until next year. Wow! where did that summer season go - it only seems like a few weeks ago that it opened for the 2022 season?
Anyway it was a quiet day - very quiet! However I had a chance to get round and have a look around at a few things.
First thing was in the main shed where the three Sentinels were parked in line. I am not aware of any other museum that has three near identical locos so this is a fairly unique thing to see.
Going into the restoration shed I was shocked to see a large open space.
I need not worry though! Elizabeth, the steam loco under restoration had been moved outside to be over the pit. She now has her reversing gear on and handbrake workings.
