It was on made-up ground, so couldn't be too heavy.<br />Currently 'brick mining' the bulldozed remains along the western platform is yielding interesting finds, but not on the scale we need - thousands, even 10s of thousands of blues and reds. We have a few leads, but more would be of interest.Jo https://www.blogger.com/profile/05480195769830116100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8246842529969806828.post-74199620351616489402012-06-18T23:31:46.610+01:002012-06-18T23:31:46.610+01:00Re the blue brick hunt, as the signal box will not...Re the blue brick hunt, as the signal box will not be siyed as it was originaly, have you considered robbing out the old footings beyond the bridge?

Surely, of all the work needed to reopen Broadway Station, a signal box is the least important thing.<br /><br />We don't need a signal box to operate a run round loop.<br /><br />Can you enlighten us please.It seems a strange way to spend scarce funds.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8246842529969806828.post-86781298145560828352012-06-17T16:06:51.800+01:002012-06-17T16:06:51.800+01:00Well suggested Gordon.

However if anyone out there is waiting for a good time to donate and make a difference, now is the time!<br />BillBillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01318720512739905663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8246842529969806828.post-33580445013175448802012-06-17T12:06:09.666+01:002012-06-17T12:06:09.666+01:00Bill

It's you and your team doing all the hard work and it's us just watching you all from the comfort of our own armchairs. I'm sure if we all put our hands in our pockets for £10 to help with the signal box footings, it would make a big dent in the shortfall you're looking for. There has to be some price to pay for the continuous entertainment we're all getting from watching you! Just ask us? My £10 is on it's way.Gordon of Rhoosenoreply@blogger.com
