A work in progress... (still!)

[Dave Harris @crepello012]

I've not been on Twitter forever and I've enjoyed the time I've been here. However, now that twat Musk has killed third party apps like @Twitterrific I can't access it without using their execrable app or web site. So I'm out of here and back to the real world. Bye.

Celebrating #HeritageTreasuresDay with the mid-19thC stove in the Porter’s Room at Wingfield Station (our current @HeritageFundUK project).Thanks to the Midland Railway Society for sharing drawings from their collection of the MR ‘Dreadnought’ stove - likely to be the antecedent.

⭐️ This year Derby Museums celebrated its tenth anniversary as an independent charitable trust. Check out what we got up to in our end of year film…

Thank you to all our fantastic supporters and funders.

We look forward to seeing you all in 2023!

@nickbro76777852 @SignaloftheDay Just looked closer and noticed the signal appears to have an X on the arm which is also interesting to learn. I understand that although not in use at all since just before the war, it wasn’t until 1948 that the box was formally abolished.

@nickbro76777852 @SignaloftheDay Thanks for sharing that Nick. It’s an incredibly rarely photographed location (I’ve never seen a view of the box), so seeing that shot is lovely. 👍

This is surely the very definition of “opportunistic“? 🤦‍♂️

[Dave Harris @crepello012]

@RHummBooks I know I’m four hours too late, but I think it’s worth mentioning that the half-timbered building to the right is the still-extant Portland Hotel. Attached thereto as a retaining wall is a tiny part of this long-gone station building. It’s always about the details, y’know 😇

[Dave Harris @crepello012]

Yes!

[Chris Bryant @RhonddaBryant]

The last few months in British politics have been chaotic but we need to get this sorted so we can get the Rhondda Tunnel open.

Good to see gracing the shelves of Waterstones at Nottingham. @colindotpdx @TheUniverse @Nottingham_Nick 👍

THIS was the shot I bought a #drone for! @DJIGlobal #Mini3Pro

[Dave Harris @crepello012]

Your patch @nigpc ?

[Dave Harris @crepello012]

@andy_bundle Hi Andy. Thanks. It’s uploaded at 1080p (HD) like the Sudbury one. The YouTube client on your tv might default to play it back at 480p (standard def.) though. Try hitting the setting cog? 👍

[Dave Harris @crepello012]

Just published my latest YouTube masterpiece - if I do say so myself! Some belting aerial footage of Swanage and Corfe Castle in Dorset on the Isle of Purbeck - including a bit of steam on the Swanage Railway.
