A vist to Midsomer Norton station

On November 2nd I visited Midsomer Norton station.

0-4-0 Sentinel steam loco sat in the yard at Midsomer N

The volunteers there are working to get the Slow & Delightful (Somerset & Dorset) railway up and running again!

I saw on site alot of new rolling stock including a very smartly restored mk1 open coach, I presume it is there ready to start Regular passenger trains sometime in the forseeable future!

Outside the Shed/workshop there was visual evidence of the ever progressing restoration of the lines 0-4-0 Sentiel steam locomotive.

The wagon outside the new Museum is now compleated aswell as the Museum itself!

I have found out that the Museum is now open on Sundays aswell as the gift shop, so if you want to have a look around there that would be the day to go. The shop is open on Mondays too!
