A visit to Ponsandane this morning to see the work going on to reinstate the sidings for IET units & the new cycle way car park. The granite stone is so big it makes one wonder where they are from & where they will be used as they are delivered to site. The old shunters cabin area is being excavated with more large ,but not so heavy, stone being excavated

Hello Roger, I hope you are keeping well and warm. Lovely pictures in the snow at Penzance and Long Rock, the one of the 47 inspired me to run such a train on my layout! Here we see two 47s—513 ‘Severn’ and 592 ‘County of Avon’ –waiting to leave Penzance with the 12 noon parcels on 13 June 1986. Copyright Michael Forward

Many Thanks Michael
