Come Rain Or Shine

The volunteers braved four seasons in one day to continue with the track laying at Weston. The focus of their attention was the southern point for the run round loop or number 3 as it is officially known.

With the track being installed from the bridge going northwards there was one further panel to be assembled before reaching the point.

Andy G was on hand with his waterproof camera to catch the events during the day. There are only a couple of pictures as the weather carried on deteriorating during the day.

In the first picture the rails are being moved into position on the second panel from the bridge. Alongside are the switch rails for the point.

After have been continually rained on when it came time to pack up the sun came out. Typical!

The second picture shows the start of laying out the point timbers, although the sun was shining the sleepers and tackbed were pretty wet making moving these around a slow and heavy job.

Oh the joys of working in the changeable English weather.  Full marks to the drenched volunteers and thanks to Andy for the pictures.

Until next time.
