Day Out - Epping to Ongar Railway



Trip started from Epping Underground station.  From where we baorded a Routemaster bus to North Weald.....brought back memories of 'On The Buses':  Bus conductor, paper tickets, wind-up windows, cable bell pull, etc.



Beautiful countryside surrounds North Weald station.

RAF100 flypast in the Mall.  

Would have preferred blue skies but the RAF still put on a decent show.
