Suits us, it is a pain putting up and taking down the Christmas lights at Ramsbottom, Rawtenstall & Heywood, no mobile tower scaffold transportation equals no Christmas lights. :lol: I know it would cost £££, but has replacing the strings with multi colour LED clusters been looked into? I am as...

To be fair, it's not always the Guards at fault here.

I'll check and report back on Saturday, as I'll be on a relief turn.
Not been rostered on a relief or been around late afternoon since I last commented on the lights.

It was a rather odd sight that's for sure. The flickering lights didn't make looking for opening/closing doors particularly easy as the train entered and left the station, due to the constantly changing shadows. One couldn't tell what was shadow and what could be a passengers arm going for a door ha...

I saw you gentlemen whilst guarding on Sunday afternoon, however, I did notice something a tad strange with the lights at Summerseat after the modifications had been completed and it had gone dark.
