In my previous experience of early voting, you park, walk in and vote. This time it was similar except for there was a little queue along the front of the mall the voting center resides in (an old Kohl's store), down the side to the rear, along the back, past the loading bays, and back, in a shape somewhat akin a paperclip, and at the end of the paperclip we took our place. There were plenty of people helping keep order and they told us we'd still be in within the hour. I was sceptical, however the line moved along at a speedy clip, and it wasn't long before we reached the door. The procedure inside seemed even more efficient than normal and they handled the spacial restrictions well. I heard someone say they had 168 voting machines inside, which doubtlessly was a blessing. In the end we were in and out, and done, in 50 minutes.
Get out and vote people! If you don't vote you don't get the right to moan about the government in the next 4 years!
Steam at last…..
'Britannia' makes a fine sight, despite the damp weather, with the first steam hauled tour since the Covid19 lockdown back in March. Riddles designed '7MT' 4-6-2 no.70000 'Britannia’ heads the Saphos Trains "Fellsman" Crewe-Carlisle tour, towards Risehill tunnel near Dent on the Settle & Carlisle line. The wreath is for Jim Smith, who was a DB driver and Traction Inspector, as well as working for LSL.
