Is there no way of finding out what work is being done, and how long it's
due to take? Everyone keeps mentioning the horn when I'm on the phone!


Well, walking down Elm Road or along The Cut to the level-crossing would
this-afternoon have shown you a lengthy ballast-train, with what looked
like JCB-arms waving on the other side of it. Walking up Elm Road to
the crossing, it taking a train from Berrylands to New Malden, might
have shown you more. It seems that the Raby Road line is being re-laid.

But I recall no horns.

Summer must be approaching here, judging by the number of cones seen in
the road ... with the ice-cream melting out of them.
