East Lancs Railway 1940's Wartime Weekend

What does £2., two shiny English Pounds, buy you these days ?????

Well it buys you a platform ticket for the East Lancashire Railway for the day and with free parking at the Ramsbottom and Rawtenstall Stations that we visited on the Sunday.

Urban Spaceman was in his leathers playing with is big boy bike and Pugwash grounded with the plane in Greenland (yes the country) it was off to sunny Ramsbottom.

Now I'm not a train spotting type of chap, but the Wartime Weekend was well worth the short ride in the car from Bolton to meet up with Judderman and ZerO 81 for a bit of non Urbexy stuff and some idle banter.

With clothing of the era and battle re-enactments a cracking few hours of photo opportunities was had.
