Another 'Day Out With Thomas'....

Hi everyone. Another long day today, 6am - 6pm again in fact, on "Thomas" (Jinty 47298) at Shackerstone. My crew were Eddie & Jan; I fired whilst they shared the driving. It was a very enjoyable day with us making 3 departures out of the 7 from Shackerstone, as usual. We also managed to take one DMU shuttle to Market Bosworth and back as well. Not only that, we took part in sing-a-longs, playlets, races, games and stories. The railway did us proud again, and so did Jinty No47298; though she does clank a bit! In tradition of "Thomas", we cooked alot more bacon on the shovel today...lovely...

Fantastic little day out again. But, I'm very tired now! Evening all, Sam.
