JRS Photos of the Month January 2022

Winter Wonderland

Late December saw the heaviest snowfalls for a few years occur in some parts of the country, in some cases affecting service operations. We kick off the new year with a look at a few photos from Anthony Robins on the 26th December 2021 where services were able to continue operating.
