This morning was wasted on gardening and other little jobs and all I could think about was getting out in the Zed.
So this afternoon I had a ride out to Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway for a ice cream

As we walked out side we passed a skip and there I found a heavy metal shelving unit and rail chairs after asking around I was told I could have the unit and chairs but as I was in the zed it'll have to wait until tomorrow for collection but I just had to take one of the GWR 1904 rail chairs with me just in case the skip got emptied.

Been there done that. I had the pleasure of being the fireman on this Peppercorn Class A1 Pacific 60163 Tornado. Granted it was on a heritage line but still great fun
