    Very interesting shift at work on the railway today.

    Drove the (very 😫) early morning Leicester stopping service. Absolutely spectacular, it was stunning with the first light of day emerging and snow falling heavilly. It was quite wild between Hinckley and Narborough and looked like Narborough had some very deep snow. Had to apply some of the safety rules we are trained to do when driving in snow. But thoroughly enjoyed it...my training in the simulator in these conditions had set me up well! We had a good, safe run in spectacular conditions and only ended picking up a couple of minutes delay. Though when you're the stopping service, your timings are for a slower run anyway!

    Then in mid morning, I did Derby and Nottingham. The snow was beginning to melt by then but it was almost completely green from Tamworth northwards..could see very little evidence of any snow at all around Burton. Between Derby and Nottingham, it was very very patchy but could see higher ground in the distance still had a good cover. I'm sure these places had done well but it had melted remarkably quickly.

    Then driving home just now, it appears that the Sandwell area and Dudley have actually managed to hang on to quite a bit of snow cover. Still quite covered down my road too.

    Mansfield Nottinghamshire my early morning drive to work 🙂 am hoping no more snow on Tuesday as have a train booked 🙂

    We all get a turn, we all have had at least 1 turn in here since just after Xmas, not mine this time, but have had good events

    not ruling out a dusting early tomorrow, but expect thaw as heat of the day arrives post 10am

    Think we all have something in common we love the snow
