Upgrading Signage

 Tuesday 3rd Sept

A short trip to CRC today to replace some very tired warning signs. The first ones are at the crossing by the signal box:

John B and John P removing the very faded one:


And the bright new one (complying with current regulations) in place:


This one has much more of a visual impact

Then it's back to base at Winchcombe to do a bit of tidying up at the far end of the new workshop. It is planned to reposition the container which is presently opposite the C & W workshop at the side of the set of blue containers here. This to provide more secure and dry storage for our signal spares.


The whole of this area will be tidied up with a covering of stone/spent ballast

Note the drains here which we have surrounded with aprons of concrete.


This area will be used to tidy up the various  larger signalling items which currently are spread around Winchcombe yard.


That's all from me for a while - having a full knee replacement next week so no more clambering over ballast for some time!

  2. As time has gone by some. Just wanted to ask about Curly who had the knee replacement. How is he convalescing? and wish him well and a speedy recovery.
    Regards, Paul.
