Another great Quarry Operating Session at the Rocks By Rail Museum today. I was acting as one of the shunters so had the delights of points and couplings. Having done this a few times now I was taken aback by the number of visitors who took up position to watch the activities in detail rather than glance and walk on. Hopefully they enjoyed it as much as I did. Unfortunately for them they would not have been early enough to see the Museum come to life. The steam loco being fired up, the diesels warmed up and the excavators readied foe action - all fascinating stuff to someone like me!.
Once visitors arrived it was action stations with shunting and wagon exchanges all day.
It was both a warm day and hard work so at lunchtime it was the perfect time for a Magnum ice cream!
