Keynsham platform refurb

Post by James »

The closed section of platforms beyond the Bristol side of the road bridge have had palisade fencing fitted, and the surface cleared of debris, and dug out for what looks like resurfacing. I assume this is due to the number of HSTs stopping there in the new timetable, but it will also make photting specials that little bit less illegal! :P

Palisade fencing, it has to be one of the ugliest and in a lot of instances pointless things created by man. :evil:
