Whitwell and Reepham station

We have plans for the station but I dont know about the box, were working off pictures and old workers on the line. I dont know but I think we do have a signal box waiting to be picked up.

 

I would like to welcome you to the new Whitwell and Reepham youtube page

I have created this and will hopefully be updating with progress reports.
There are 3 at the minute. I am using a digital camera to record the videos atm but it might jump to a real camera.
Thanks

 

Looking good. Cant wait to visit when i get over that way.

 

Thanks. We are slowly making a name for ourselves.
Don't forget to comment or subscribe. There will be anymore videos going up.

Sorry it has no sound, We havent got round to finding music that goes to a train montage.

 

looking really good. one point tho could you slow down the picture rate as i only seemed to get half a sec per picture. so didnt get time to view all the hard work done.

 

Hmmm, it wasnt that fast in my video editor.
I will go back.

 

Fixed.

Thanks.
By the way we have just had our engine shed doors and windows refitted. Looks every good and now we can actualy see inside where as before we just had little lamps.

30th may we are having a shuttle buss between Mid norfolk and whitty.

Our next big event is on fathers day, "Bring Dad along to drive the train."

Then on the 4th july, its going to be all american, steam day, then after, music in the marquey and a live Elvis band.

 

So its true, Elvis has been at Whitwell all the time.

Seriously though, what an excellent set-up you seem to have down there; you just seem to have got on with it and I must get down there sometime to see the place, well done folks!

 

Thanks alot.

Most of the work is done by 12 commited volys and old machinery.

New video on the Engine shed this time.

This week end, if any of you are in the norfolk area and have visited NNR and see the black 5 GS, HOW about a visit to us aswell, We are open sat, sun and mon. But only steam and BBQ on the sat and sun.
So Steam and a BBQ on the sat and sunday and a vintage bus from MNR but cant remember if is a continus suttle.
My nan is also putting on a small plant sale on the NEWLY extended platfrom.

 

I hope to visit you again; I was there in February and most impressed by the progress and general attitude of the place. I really like it!

Best of luck with your endeavours

 

Thanks, I will have some photos up after event.

Video upload as I couldn't get pictures to work.

 

Really liking the pics of the new shed door, the paint looks fantastic

 

Oh and quick question does any of the building on the other platform survive?

 

The doors look very good after 3 coats.

Nope, foundations are still there though.

 

I have heard that the coach will now be saved in time, either by going to nnr or staying here to be overauled.

Work on the cattle platform has started for our steam rally, granite blocks have been removed ( day was set out to save them ) they will be replaced with concrete, I think for safety but I hope/sure they will go back in some time.
