This picture was taken after we returned from a wonderful day out on a steam train to Robertson (of famous pie shop fame!!). This service hasn't run for the last 2 1/2 years due to the fire risk it poses. We were very fortunate to get tickets and even more so that we had a private compartment for the seven of us.
The train arrived 35 minutes late (are Southwest trains running this service???) but it was well worth the wait. After swiping in with my Oyster card we were on our way! We travelled through some amazing scenery as we made our way up the mountain track to the Southern Highland town of Robertson. The views on the way back weren't so spectacular as a thick fog seemed to creep in from nowhere.There was a small fayre once we reached Robertson with a few stalls and yet more yummy pies (I'll need two seats on the plane home!!!)
The picture below is me next to an old 1930's Packard motor car.
