CHR DMU Team

The team at Llynclys are proceeding withe the restoration of the bodywork of the vehicles. 

Under the good weather a start has been made of stripping the roof.  Until you stand up on the roof you don't appreciate just how much surface area there is. If the choice is between cutting the lawn or stripping a roof I might even be tempted to cut the lawn as it's only half of a carriage roof.

Whilst the weather permits it's a good chance to sand back an re primer to ensure the right surface finish.

Sanding away reveals other clues as to the units past life.

Many thanks to CHR for the pictures. There is still plenty of preparation work before the exterior can be painted. The work will carry on so that we can return these units to pristine condition to welcome our passengers.

Many thanks for the donations to assist with the restoration.

Until next time.
