Ruddington heritage centre. I was helping put a few points machines in, that was my reward!

OK I get your points

I went off the rails ages ago but I never saw the signal.

I must need more training.

So are they going to electrify the box then?

From my visits there they seem to be pretty clued up on their plans (more so than the Southern lot) but the place itself just seems to be a collection of bits with no apparent flow or design. In other words the long-term looks fantastic, but the current stuff seems to have been forgotten.

Yes the points machines i was installing were to take trains into platform 2. Clamplocks in the platform, i believe the rest of the machines will be HW's, that'll be fun im sure, they weigh aroung 180kg each!

They were excited yesterday because they have a "pete" coming in, whatever that is if you care to enlighten me?

I drove a 37 at Llangollen............such a great machine, especially through the tunnel with the power handle wide open. I love Gronks too!
