Since my line has been up and running I have run an annual Xmas Day Milk Train for the neighbours. It started here as everyone in the Street was interested in all the Building Materials arriving and wondered what was going on. So I started in 2013 when I had a Circuit to use and have continued each year since. I also do some Gluewine for after to warm the guests which always goes down well. I started with the Jamie Oliver recipe but this has now beeen adopted to my own, different every year!
The pics above show the set up and getting Stock ready. Roundhouse Stanley officiated this year, for some reason Jack would not fire up. But I always Steam up or attempt to steam up 2 Locomotives just in case!
Pics below show the gang in the Garden. Never managet to count the number but I reckon we get 30-40 in.
Needless to say Barney gets into the act with next doors granddaughter. He does enjoy all the fuss and new friends that he makes.
Thanks to Lily and Colin for some of the pics, always a bit tricky for me whilst driving the Train. Merry Christmas all.
