Thursday Gang

It was back to work for the Thursday Gang volunteers and a chance to shed some of those extra pounds gained over the Christmas holidays.  Thursday's activities were concentrated at Weston where the race is on to assemble the points before the sectional platform is assembled.  Once the platform is in place there will be no access for machinery.

Andy G took the following picture as Pete M continued to lay out the point components. Don't worry there are not two different gauges, the final alignment requires some leverage to put the rails in the right orientation.


In the background the team continues with vegetation clearance. The warmth of the bonfire seemed to be very popular.

More materials for the station are due to arrive shortly so space is at a premium and it is vital to have the area cleared.

The Saturday volunteers will continue with the work at Weston and we will keep updating you with progress.

More volunteers are always welcome and the important tea making facilities are now on site at Weston. These facilities have been thoroughly tested and confirmed fit for purpose, by multiple users.

Although it might be cold outside there is a passion burning in the hearts of CHR members as we seek to maintain the impressive progress of 2019 in to 2020.

Thanks to all who braved the weather to volunteer and to Andy G for the picture.

Until next time.
