There is news across the country of bonfire and firework displays cancelled, live music struggling, entertainment on hold and here we all are thinking after the pandemic we was on the upward spiral. Here is hoping we all can survive the increase costs. A few tips are: make a budget and stick to it, prioritise your spending and look for cheaper alternatives. Something I will definitely be doing over the next few months. The good news Epworth Firework display is still scheduled and full details are on page 10. What ever you chose to do on bonfire night stay safe. Enjoy the read.

Other news from Crowle Peatland Railway We are progressing with the restoration of 711, the Lisbon Tram, the interior has been completed and most of the exterior paintwork will be complete by the Christmas Event - we will then have the problem of sorting out a new canvas on the roof. Acquisition of the tram and its restoration have been made possible by a generous donation from the SSE Keadby Wind Farm Community Fund. New carriages are being constructed using frames that were given to us by Statfold Barn Railway in Staffordshire. These are expected to be complete in time for visits to Father Christmas in December.

We always need new volunteers! If you are interested in becoming a member and volunteering please feel free to drop into one of our work parties on Wednesday and Saturday mornings - we are a friendly bunch and always looking for new willing hands.

Crowle Brickworks Locomotive Group A private group has rescued the Hibberd locomotive that used to operate at Crowle Brickworks until 1968, when it was replaced by dumpers. The locomotive with works number 1881, was built in 1934 and worked o-n a 1′ 8″ gauge tramway at Crowle Brickworks. It is a Hibberd “Y” type, with a Ford 8hp petrol engine, and fitted with a cab. After the line closed the loco was bought for preservation in October 1970 by Richard Morris of Kent, o-ne of the consortium of enthusiasts who later set up the narrow-gauge collection at Gloddfa Ganol. Mr Morris re-gauged it to 2′ gauge in 1972. The locomotive has for several years been located at the Steeple Grange Light Railway near Wirksworth in Derbyshire but was at risk of being scrapped. This group have been given permission to store and work on the loco at the Old Peatworks, on the proviso that it does not distract from the hard work that volunteers are putting into current Peatland Railway projects. Does anyone have memories of the loco when it operated at Crowle? Please get in touch with the group - angus@townley.com The Hibberd Locomotive when it was located at Steeple Grange

Fundraisers raise thousands for Lindsey Lodge in biggest ever Glow Walk More than 550 walkers helped light up the night sky to raise much-needed funds for charity on Friday 9 September. Glow sticks, face paint and fairy lights were in order for Lindsey Lodge Hospice & Healthcare’s 10 and 5-mile Glow Walk, which took place during its 30th birthday year. Lindsey Lodge Deputy Chief Executive Tom Moody said: “We’re absolutely delighted with how many people supported this year’s event! “We hoped that this would be our biggest and best Glow Walk yet to help us celebrate 30 years of Lindsey Lodge, and the local community came together and helped us achieve this.

“The atmosphere was fantastic, seeing all of our supporters dressed up ready to glow, while also paying touching tributes to their loved one with our Memory Mile. All of the early signs are that we’re on track to raise our target of £40,000 for the event – so a massive thanks to everyone who took part!” Musician Connor Hanly, along with Rock’Em Pop’Em Discos provided the right beats to help build the energy on the night, and in true Glow Walk tradition, local Zumba teacher Penny Goulding got everyone limbered up at the start line, before Lindsey Lodge Chief Executive Karen Griffiths, who was helped by hospice patients, officially started the 2022 event. Lindsey Lodge mascot Lindsey Bear also made a special appearance to offer his support. Tom said: “We are so grateful to everyone who made the night such a success –from the entertainers to the patients, staff and volunteers – and of course all of the amazing Glow Walkers!” He added: “The demand for our services is extremely high and we’re now supporting more people than ever in our 30 year history, so every penny raised from this event will ensure we continue to provide our specialist care to North Lincolnshire patients and families.” For more information about Lindsey Lodge please visit its website at www.lindseylodgehospice.org.uk, email llh.enquiries@nhs.net or phone 01724 270835.
