  2. Dear Tiggy I am so glad you noticed the viaduct is needing repair. I'm sure with your fairy dust and some strong men they will fix it before accidents happen.
    Have a great weekend.
    hugs Wilbur.

  3. Hi Tiggy! Cool! Another history lesson! I had never heard about the race between the horse and locomotive!
    The problem with most old structures is they are taking more punishment than they were ever intended to have, so looking after them is very important. Well done for keeping it safely together until it can be repaired and stay in the record books!
    Kind regards, Brian.
