An hour or so was spent at Camborne Satation on Tuesday morning watching the preparation of the trackbed for the renewal of the up main through Camborne Station, in the distance at Roskear Junction was an engineers train waiting to deliver the vital parts needed. A taxi was provided to take pedestrians via a circular route across to the other side of the crossing. However I decided to have a nice cup of tea in the friendly buffet.
