Hunslet no 18, ‘Jessie’ has returned to Blaenavon today following a 15 month overhaul. Still in it's black livery - for the time being. The loco is undergoing final tests and will be back in service very shortly. Always popular with our visitors.

It’s great to see Jessie returning after a careful overhaul and getting ready for service again. I enjoy stories like this, then I often play bitlife which is a life simulation game full of choices.

It’s great to see Jessie returning after such a long 15-month overhaul, especially knowing how popular the locomotive is with visitors. The final testing before getting back into service makes the return feel even more exciting. I enjoy that same anticipation in Crossy Road, a casual arcade game where every new run means watching the path ahead and making the next move at just the right moment.

Jessie’s return shows how heritage railways keep history alive through dedication and care. Volunteers make these moments possible, turning restoration into community pride. Playing Slope game feels similar—balance and persistence turn challenges into progress, where every move keeps the journey rolling.

It’s great to see Jessie back after such a long overhaul, and I bet the visitors are happy to have her running again. On the entertainment side, I’ve also been playing Rocket Goal in my free time lately, and it’s a fun little game to unwind with.

The stonecrop family includes some of the easiest houseplants to propagate, especially if you enjoy leaf cuttings. This page breaks down their growth habits, flowering periods, and the low-water, low-fertilizer needs that make them forgiving for beginners. For a closer look at these compact, drought-tolerant plants, the stonecrop family cultivation summary offers a solid reference without overwhelming details.
