Extensive track replacement was underway in a massive operation to renew the line during a period of closure.
Ongar is the zero datum point from which distances (now in km) are measured on the London Transport network. This 0.0 milepost is at the end of the line at Ongar Station, although I believe the true datum is at the other end of the station.
My first trip to Epping Forest and I was blessed with almost perfect colour and conditions - happiest four hours with a camera I've had for a long time.
EPP cushion cover using Lush Uptown and various Grunge colours. This is a 20" cushion and I did some straight line quilting using Aurifil#2600. Used more Grunge and a hidden zipper for the back. Started a second one already!
Templates for the cushion are from here: imagingermonkey.blogspot.ca/
The Epping and Ongar Railway between Ongar & North Weald as seen from the cab of 08836
As part of the Epping and Ongar Diesel gala the railway provided, for £5, an opportunity for passengers to travel in the cabs of any of the operating locos. I paid for 2 trips, the second being a run between Ongar and North Weald in the cab of 08836
The driver was very keen to exalplin how the little 08 worked and how it struggled at times with the gradients but that FGW had done a really great job with refurbishing and replainging the old shunter
I started making EPP hexagons 2 years ago, and then I forgot them.
I re-discovered these a few weeks ago, but I did not have enough to make a quilt, so I made a laaaaarge pillow (50cm) for the couch. It will be very comfortable to read there.

Corners and edging triangles to go. Don't think I would ever have the patience to do a quilt this way though.
Epping station on 2 June 1986 with two trains formed of Central Line 1962 stock. These units were built by Metro-Cammell and ran on the Central Line until replaced by 1992 stock. The last trains of 1962 stock ran on the Central Line on 17 February 1995. Most units of this type were scrapped, but 15 units were transferred to the Northern Line. These units lasted on the Northern Line until November 1999.
This is what happens when you stick in an old rolleiflex a roll of Kodak EPP color film expired in 2003, never kept refrigerated (in the tropics) and badly flooded in a cupboard(the cardboard box was disintegrated and the wrapper still soaked). Of course to make it all work I developed it with coffee !!
