The drop light smashed when someone lowered it at (IIRC) Dunster - in fairness, rather than needing to be pushed down it would just drop - bang!...
Just got back to my accommodation after another good day on the WSR. I was chasing 7828 as a cop engine and managed to get her from Williton to...
They used to do a Gala in May each year called Coming Up With The Goods and it used to feature picking up and dropping off wagons in Quorn Yard....
