    There is such a joy to Ffarquhar Branch. Everyone who came to see it smiled so much, no matter their age or background. It is something so special, and I'm so honoured to be involved with it - let alone operate it! Who else spotted the new addition to the platform?

    What do I find laying on my desk at work this morning? This lovely picture from 1986! The Rev Wilbert Awdry and Britt Allcroft at the Dean Forest Railway with a small display of the Television Series engine props. What a fun find!

    Hands up, who knew that Henry's Tunnel had gauntleted track when it was first built? Gauntleting is when two lines converge, but don't connect. Meaning only one train at a time can run over it - Henry was blocking both running lines, which is why they had to dig a 2nd tunnel!

    So yesterday was an amazing day. I am now a Passed Assistant Guard! (Basically, I can now Guard trains all on my own!) It's equal parts terrifying and exciting haha, I can't wait to start working towards being a fully fledged Guard!

    >fandom is cooked Are we in the same reality or did last weekend just not happen to some people? I've never seen people, of all ages, happier to be a fan. So much creativity on display, & everyone just having a grand time. Some people can be negative, but we're far from cooked.
