Beams in Place

The delivery last weekend has already been put to good use.  After unloading the beams were very soon put in place across the gaping chasm of the cattle creep. With that we now have a sound continuous base from just south of the propped bridge until Weston.  Here are the beams in all their glory spanning the gap.

Thanks to the CHR Facebook page for the picture
Included with the beams were additional stiffeners and location beams that hold everything together.  It will be a few months before we can run trains again over the bridge, there is plenty of track to (re)lay and ballast to screen before then.

Elsewhere work continued on other parts of the project, with Tuesday now being added to the working calendar.  Glynn and helpers have been carrying on with more work on the coach.

Until next time
