Train of the week #1

Train of the week from the BBR.

Just a typical short goods heading down the branch towards Boxer Bay & the docks.

The L&Y van is one of my favorite wagons, another inherited scratch build from a friend.

Sunday Snap

 Just one photo today,  another shot of BBR #1 Niki shunting a couple wagons into the brewery.  That chap has been reading the paper for a long time, probably can't believe what he's reading.

Thanksgiving

 It's our Thanksgiving holiday here in the states today and I just wanted to express my Thanks to all the online forums & friends I've made over the years in this wonderful hobby.  I've learned so much following your endeavors in the hobby.

 Here's a couple photos of the railway,  with BBR #1 departing with a short goods down to the docks, and a shot of the engine shed, with a Peckett taking a deserved break after some shunting.     Cheers !

Moving picture - GWR goods

 Tristan captured this scene of a Great Western 45xx with a rather lengthy goods, crossing the canal & peat tramway between Boxer Bay & Windrush Junction.

Sunday Snaps

 Tristan, the local photographer & railway enthusiast (who incidentally drives a Vauxhall, not a Bentley !) captured BBR Terrier #3 Josie arriving with the up mixed train,  and again departing with the return passenger service.  

A Shed, Finished

  A simple little project for the weekend completed.  Even something so simple as a shed can be satisfying.  She takes her place next to the signal box at Windrush Junction.  Just for fun I include a black & white period photo.  The driver of that Austin has been sitting there for a good long time now, I wonder why :)
