We delivered another 2 missions at Raynes Park Station today, assisting the Friends of Raynes Park Station. While a contingent of our finest were 'inducted' into the mysteries of station training, our seasoned veterans got straight to work: shoveling compost and embarking on a bucket relay up to Platform 3's planters.
We were rooting for extra hands post training, and wouldn't you know it, our timing was impeccable. Just as the trainees completed their session, the compost bag was emptied and the final bucket delivered to the awaiting planters.
Thanks to everyone who made it along - we really did prove that many hands make light work and have helped ensure the planters will be completed very soon.

The GoodGym services of Jade, Caroline, Mike, Rachael and Rufu arrived promptly at Raynes Park Station for their induction journey.
First stop: orientation around the embankment. Next stop: a very warm welcome by the station master including a guided tour of the site, where important protocols were delivered with first-class clarity. Safety briefing highlights included a firm reminder: do not cross the yellow line and tracks are strictly off-limits!
With minds focused and spirits on track, we mapped out our future route for moving compost/soil which will hopefully go some way towards choo-choosing the best plan of action for our upcoming return visit.
