Winter is always the busiest time for the railway, with the horses coming into the stables overnight, so from the start of November onwards the skips are in use daily. It usually requires at least one trip with 2 or 3 skips every weekend for tipping. Assistance has been needed with moving hay and feed as well. Things have been progressing on the loco and rolling stock front over the last few months also.
A busy summer with a number of major activities, with changes on the loco front, and a lot of work carried out to lay a branch into the workshop (garage).
Finally after dumping all the horse manure onto the muck heap for over 2 years, it was finally time to dig out the oldest part this spring. With a big effort made to finish No.10, to build a lean-to for the loco shed to incease the undercover space, plus take a spur from the garage to the loco shed to allow stock to move in and out, it has been a busy time.
