Here we are at Catcott a few months after closure of the line and the contractors have arrived to dismantle the railway.
Out of sight behind the engine are a couple of open wagons that will be used to cart away anything of value. Basically things made of metal.
Freddy the Flag has just closed the gates, for what will be one of the last few times before they’re broken up and probably burned in the old goods yard along with the ground frame and anything else that is flammable.
He then looks up at the cottage, hoping that it won’t be demolished, for it has really has lovely views of the big skies, flat watery meadows and moors.
The railway van in the distance should have gone with the departure of the final goods train, but the local moonshiners are using it for storage, but it will need to be moved before the rails are taken up. But a suitable deal will no doubt be had with the contractors.
And finally, as you’ll have worked out from the title, this is the view I get poking the camera through from the fiddle yard on full zoom, a little Canon G7x Mk2.

A lot of work goes in to creating these scenes, chucking a few sovs in the jar really helps, cheers 👉 www.buymeacoffee.com/Nevardmedi3
