The final service on 22 Dec ’24 on the Middleton Railway. Santa was very busy with all his admirers. Darkness was overtaking the scene hence the glow from the firebox underneath the cab.

I know how the staff and volunteers must feel, I drove 80 ‘Santa Cruise’ boats, finishing on Monday—a Merry Christmas to all those who keep all our heritage going.

(The festive season) And a terrorist with a heavy car has caused havoc yet again! But if the heavy concrete block (centre stone) blocking a section had a 12volt battery compartment for its simple rollers and brush bar to allow an emergency vehicle through, if so needed, with a simple code from a handset? That one weak link has allowed carnage yet again!

Ive done many a mile 2nd manning this out of Bath road shed Bristol. Its a sort of memory thing? Distant days long gone! It was all new to drivers too! Some tentative and careful! Others like a Grand Prix? Some antics? Still plenty of steam about, And no single manning back then of coarse! Nice picture Phil.
