What with one thing and another I didn’t manage to get many photos today, but there was plenty going on.
The main job of the day was a bogie swap on 25488. The selected bogie was outside and Clive went round with the pot of grease and a batch of split pins in the necessary places.
Later on it was rolled underneath into position.
Axleboxes were opened up to inspect pads…
And by the end of the day the coach body was lowered down, John measuring the ride and spring heights.
Elsewhere the GW/SR box van continues with a good sand down all over, George doing the honours…
Along with Maurice.
Who finished the day with a spot of undercoat on the South headstock.
Robert and Simon spent some of the day fitting the second part of the shelving unit to the servery in the RBr. This was the only picture I got however as immediately there was a “Ah perfect, give us a hand Alex!”
Dave carried on painting the corridor connection woods for the FK today.
I only just caught Paul and Dennis coming back from the rake sin the platform having continued their deep clean.
Finally Ainsley continued the repair work on the door pillar of 16221, slow progress but he’s getting there.
