Umbrella but no bowler hat !! ( word for the day ) by beryl

Umbrella but no bowler hat !! ( word for the day )

It's amazing how a little sunshine can lighten the mood !! So an outing was in order !! I called at this railway station which was made redundant in Mr Beeching era and was later converted into an Edinburgh Wool & other shops . I was not enticed to buy anything today , but had a rather nice afternoon tea in the little Cafe upstairs which was tastefully decorated with memorabilia & snippets of history from the railway age .As we sat domn with our tea i looked up & ther was a replica train carriage rack with a case & other items AND a rolled up umbrella hung from the rack what luck !!!
Fav, Great spot and capture. Seems a great shame that so many miles of the railway were lost forever back in the sixties.

Railway stations appear to have this fate all round the world! They are generally interesting buildings! Good to see part of it!

Luck indeed Beryl but I reckon it's because we notice these things more!!! A perfect little story & a perfect spot for a pot of tea!!

Sounds like the ideal place to have a cup of tea and just unwind.

@thresheg @maggiemae @gamelee @hillymay Thanks for your kind comments they have kept the railway station theme throughout the building and in tourist season they have the sounds of a steam train going by -echoing through the building -really makes you want to jump out onto the platform & onto the next train !!
