Exhausting!

A day at the Rocks by Rail Museum is usually exhausting for me with a fair amount of physical work. However in this case I am talking about the exhaust on Mr. D the small diesel shunter.

The ever resourceful John is finding the parts that are scattered wide and far over the Museum and getting them to actually fit as originally intended.

I see John even found the horn! Not sure what will be louder? Horn or exhaust?

The weighbridge project is coming on with the door now in its company maroon colour thanks to new volunteer Steve - we don't give any new volunteers much chance to escape!

He also gave the weigh head a fresh coat of green and it looks really smart.

For me, despite a days mowing I had a half hour at the end of the day to remove another builders bag of rotting vegetation from the pile that has built up near the quarry.

It may be exhausting and may only be a bag or so a week....

But over time it adds up! You can see how the pile has been reduced. Hopefully by the end of the open season it will be gone!
