Statfold Barn Railway Family FunFest 2019

 

We were given space in the Roundhouse shared with indutrial locos and the refreshment area .. very convenient for parents! We had plenty of time to set up on the Friday before the weelend event. one of our many keen volunteers.
Not so young volunteer helper Melvyn at work. Melvyn worked at Toton in the Wagon Repairs Works before going on to leading the Toton Breakdown Train. Some of the young ones quickly got the idea of carrying out set shunting tasks.
It was lovely to see how engaged the younsters became with theirset tasks. At times we had a queue and issued numbered tickets!
Again the crane was an important feature of the set-up. Here two members of a family group combine to tackle a shunting job!
