Dec 17th A dirty train

Today it is dull, dark, grey but thankfully still mild. I went for a walk through Shewalton woods. Within the woods there is a railway line servicing the paper mill and wood yard. My path crosses the railway line but today was the first time for many a year that a train was actually sitting at the crossing with its engine running. Once upon a time it would have been nice and clean, now it is just a dirty machine, a dull memory for a dull day.
