silversteellady liked 60044's post in the thread Bluebell Railway General Discussion.

Compared to last weeks wet & windy weather, it was a stark contrast atop the hill yesterday, being warm with a pleasant breeze! After the obligatory breakfast, it was time for those gathered to make their way down the yard & that's where out...
