We also encountered this railway bridge on the way into West Stafford and managed to be here just as an SWR train came racing across it.

Nothing would stop me filming a train in the snow and the fact that it was the 'Trainbow' livery that went past as well was a bonus.

Update on that bouncing sleeper, which has gotten worse since last time. As it's covered in a cement like substance & a hole is forming.

Had a surprise visitor this week in the form of this Balfour Beatty Tamper, which stayed in the yard for 2 days for overnight works in the area.

Thought I would give you an update on the messy, chalk-covered wet bed sleeper, which seems to have gotten worse after all the winter rain.
