The case of the disappearing train!
Full steam ahead!
Or simply a bookcase?
During the week I’m going to take you to a wonderful museum at Preston Park, in North Yorkshire. Because it’s Saturday and I only have six words to describe it (smile!), I’ll just give you a little taster, like the Header above.
A perfect way to tell the time!
Snuff anybody? No thanks, but isn’t the case stunning?
And of course, there are costumes.
As I walked into the museum I looked at a “faux” bookcase- or so I thought! I’d just turned away to the cabinets when, with a mighty roar, the steam train came clanking through. Then disappeared just as suddenly, and all was still.
Yes, I’m still playing with Headers, but have rejected the “Random” option. I like a little more control over how I look! “Menus” aren’t much of an option either, as I’m only allowed one with this theme.
Do join us at Six word Saturday! There’s always something going on, and Cate at Show My Face will be most happy to receive you. Just click on the link or the logos.
Sounds fascinating , ghost train and all! The snuff box looks exquisite too.
It was an excellent morning out. Thanks for your company 🙂
Love it all! So much treasures and history. Wonderfully presented. Felt like I was in the museum myself. Have a great week.
It would be a wonderful place to spend a rainy day, Mr. B (like today). The clouds are rushing across the sky this morning but it’s still warm indoors 🙂 Many thanks for your lovely visit.
fascinating place to explore!!!
It really is, Nonoy 🙂
Very interesting and very well done post… 🙂
I have been in the area several times and know where it is
but haven’t visit it yet – shame on me… 🙂
You should! I’m just writing the follow up 🙂
I would so love to visit!
You can come along virtually when I do the tour, Cindy 🙂
That’s a spiffing header, Jo. I like to have control too. I bet you are busy this weekend 😉
Always, Paula! 🙂 Sometimes I have Saturday afternoon to myself but Sundays are always busy till around about now. Big sigh!
Thank you 🙂 It’ll go with the next post too.
Absolutely stunning Jo! That case and clock is beautiful! Great shots and post hon. Can’t wait for the tour. Can I have some wine this time please? LOL!
Not as many as I would’ve liked, Sonel 🙂 Shooting into glass cabinets is tricky (unless you’re trying for a selfie of course). It’s a lovely place, as you will see. There’s a coffee shop- not so sure about the wine 😦
Well you did a great job and yes, I know and just hate when that happens. I always stand sideways so it doesn’t catch my reflection. LOL!
Oh shucks! But coffee will do fine as well. I love coffee! LOL!
Very beautiful exhibits that you photographed at the museum!
All are wonderful creations, masterpieces of art! Thank you for sharing.
Have a wonderful Sunday! 🙂
Many thanks, Stefania 🙂 It’s a lovely place.
Yes more please Johanna !
Coming soon Kathryn 🙂
Looks like a wonderful place to explore on a winters day Jo
It was, Seonaid 🙂 And bright enough to have a stroll down by the river afterwards.
I’d love to visit this museum, Jo. Thanks for sharing 😀
It’s had a really good makeover, Dianne, but still retained its original Victorian streets. More to follow 🙂
I am liking the new header!
Thanks, Hilary 🙂 I’ve been changing it with each post. Keeps me on my toes!
