Well a Happy New Year to all our readers! Its been snowing again - no surprise with a couple of inches yesterday and a similar amount today. Its not stopped the work though, although we did have a partial day off yesterday - our annual day off. It was partial as we had to clear the station and points before we could go Goathland for a walk to Water Ark and a final look at Bridge 30. Today after clearing the station of snow (again), we dismantled the siezed brakegear on the LNER high goods wagon, cleaned the rust off the parts and applied a protective coat of bitumastic. We have also commenced clearing the timber from under the CCT ready for its move into the station once the trains have finished.
