It was not the busiest of days visitor wise at the Rocks By Rail Museum with a Quarry Day running yesterday as there were several other events going on in the area and the weather forecast had predicted rain. However, there was no rain so those that came enjoyed the sunshine and the Museum itself as well as all the activities that were taking place. All in all it was a great day, in a great place with great people!
The usual brake van rides were available and proved popular.
Doing my usual shunting activities I was more than ably supported by Graham and John who was driving Mr. D our shunting loco.
Mr. D, was looking good which is mainly down to John who has spent hours on getting this loco not only looking good but running well.
John's latest improvement has been to paint the operating panel to contrast with the rest of the repainted cab.
Meanwhile, Rob was demonstrating the drag line which always looks impressive.
And Martyn was demonstrating the face shovel.
We were all kept busy shunting and exchanging the wagons until the time came to park up wagons and loco and head for home!
