Tuesday Gang

Tuesday's track work activities were based around the accommodation crossing behind Travis Perkins.  The aim was to lay and roll the ballast bed in order to position the sleepers.

Thanks to Andy G here are some pictures of the day's activities.  We start with the manual movement of ballast to the required area.

Over lunch the team discussed the next steps and Glynn followed up with a further safety briefing. Noel, Steve, Norman, John and Dave are listening before the afternoon session.
The ballast has been moved into position and the area rolled. Sleepers are beginning to appear along the line.
At the end of the day the Heras fencing is replaced to secure the site.
The orange line marks the position of the soon to be laid rails coming from the south to the crossing.

Thanks to Andy for the pictures and to all who turned up.

Until next time.
