Monday 24th - Home And Away

 The "Home" team had rake 1 at Toddington and the "Away" team rake 2 at Winchcombe.

This was the scene at Toddington.

That's new! Windows decorated with stick-on scenes. And also new - 

Christmas trees in the trains.

The trains are, as always, a sell-out. That's excellent but excited children do leave a little debris, to say the least! So on to the routine.

Val cleaning windows.

Kath sweeping.

And Jane with a cloth that was clean before wiping the top windows!

I started with the hand held vac on seats, then got the Ghostbuster. Here I was helped by Kath and Val as "Ghostbuster's Little Helpers" - they went ahead sweeping the dust and debris into piles for me to vac up, as well as me  reaching the parts the brooms didn't reach.

John M was on toilets and we very pleased to welcome back Roger C, on light duties, now recovering well after his operation at the end of August. Long Tall Steve was as usual reaching the difficult parts.

Washing the Cotswold side were Chris, David, Paul, Peter and Tim.

The Away Team was Rich, Nigel, Greg and Lynne. No outside wash.

And a couple of pics to end. Inside the new buffet car.

And the outside.
