More Trackwork

Some timbers in turnouts at East Tanfield are being replaced.   The turnout with most timbers to change was started this afternoon.

Mark, Malcolm, Angela and Ian removing chair screws,
with Dave keeping them right
Last closure rail being lifted out by Marc and John .....
..... then lift out the life-expired timbers .....
..... which are replaced .....
..... and the closure rails put back in position
We still need to align, gauge and fasten down the iron work, then do similar at other points.
