First the apparent bird swap. This is unedited apart from picking it out and slowing it down.
On this one, some chopped out, some slowed down, some speeded up and a wider view than some of the others. The Pigeon plodding round and round amuses me. About 5 minutes.

Winter winds and rails return
We’ve had snow, sun, storms and the surprise appearance of new rails in what was the shunting yard. Firstly storm Darragh versus Ellie the wind vane a tenacious trunk tale.
They have been slowly removing more remains from the yard for years, then trees grew up, then they were cut down and the last rolling stock and rails removed. Now they are apparently preparing for electrification and repair and storage area.

December 2024
Ruth is visiting her Grandchildren and I am pootling as usual. A few flowers are still hanging on and the Winter Jasmine is coming into its own. We didn’t get round to picking the apples on the slippery hillside tree, so we are getting near the end of this year’s store.
We had a few visitors late on today.
There is tons of work going on in the former shunting yard below. It seems they are putting new rails in, perhaps as part of the upcoming electrification of the line and also to provide a storage area and workshop for rolling stock.
