So I've been to the awesome Beamish Open Air Museum today, with just so happens to include a reconstructed North Eastern Railway station, originally from Rowley in County Durham...

So as well as proving I haven't completely forgotten about this blog, also shows the world just how grey my beard is getting.
Alas there were no trains running on this demonstration line today, but I did manage a short trip on the Pockerley Waggonway, behind a replica of Puffing Billy, and a couple of trips on trams.
To paraphrase a certain balding, plasticine, cheese-lover, it's been a Grand Day Out.
