Thursday Gang (South)

With work split between two main sites it fell to Colin to take the pictures of work going on south of Gasworks Bridge.  Attention was concentrated on the sleeper pile recently made accessible by the further movement south of the screener. With the screener on a roll the number of (elephant) mole hills are increasing.  Still a long way to go though.  A new working table has been created so that the sleepers stored by the side of the embankment can be worked on.  Here is the set up with the completed sleepers stacked further away from the camera.  There was the usual mixture of sleepers with most be suitable for reuse, though with the easier to process style of chair.

Dave, Colin and the rest of the team continued throughout the day until rain stopped play.  The completed sleepers ready for use were stacked between the ballast heaps. 

 Though there was a stop for lunch and the sleeper pile makes an ideal open air restaurant.

Thanks to everyone who turned up and to Colin for the pictures.

Until next time.
